Comments [?]

Function Radical SAM enzyme that catalyzes the addition of the adenosyl radical to the double bond of 3-[(1-carboxyvinyl)oxy]benzoate, leading to aminodeoxyfutalosine (AFL), a key intermediate in the formation of menaquinone (MK, vitamin K2) from chorismate.
Catalytic activity RHEA:33075: 3-[(1-carboxyvinyl)-oxy]benzoate + H2O + S-adenosyl-L-methionine = 6-amino-6-deoxyfutalosine + H(+) + hydrogencarbonate + L-methionine
EC 2.5.1.120
case <FTGroup:1>
Cofactor [4Fe-4S] cluster
Note: Binds 1 [4Fe-4S] cluster. The cluster is coordinated with 3 cysteines and an exchangeable S-adenosyl-L-methionine.
end case
Pathway Quinol/quinone metabolism; menaquinone biosynthesis.
Similarity Belongs to the radical SAM superfamily. MqnE family.
