EC 6.2.1.65     
Accepted name: salicylate—CoA ligase
Reaction: ATP + salicylate + CoA = AMP + diphosphate + 2-hydroxybenzoyl-CoA (overall reaction)
(1a) ATP + salicylate = diphosphate + (2-hydroxybenzoyl)adenylate
(1b) (2-hydroxybenzoyl)adenylate + CoA = AMP + 2-hydroxybenzoyl-CoA
Glossary: 2-hydroxybenzoyl-CoA = salicyloyl-CoA
Other name(s): sdgA (gene name)
Systematic name: salicylate:CoA ligase (AMP-forming)
Comments: The enzyme, characterized from the bacteria Thauera aromatica and Streptomyces sp. WA46, participates in a salicylate degradation pathway. It activates salicylate by its adenylation to (2-hydroxybenzoyl)adenylate, followed by the transfer of the activated compound to coenzyme A.
