The role of shikimic acid in the biosynthesis of vitamin K2.

G B Cox, F Gibson.   

Abstract

1. Shikimic acid was shown to be a precursor of vitamin K(2) (MK-8) in Escherichia coli. 2. The benzene ring of the naphthaquinone arises from shikimic acid. 3. The methyl group of methionine is incorporated into vitamin K(2). 4. A scheme relating the biosynthesis of vitamin K(2) and ubiquinone to the general pathway of aromatic biosynthesis is proposed.
