Converts 2-succinylbenzoate (OSB) to 2-succinylbenzoyl-CoA (OSB-CoA). 2-succinylbenzoate + ATP + CoA = 2-succinylbenzoyl-CoA + AMP + diphosphate Quinol/quinone metabolism; 1,4-dihydroxy-2-naphthoate biosynthesis; 1,4-dihydroxy-2-naphthoate from chorismate: step 5/7. Quinol/quinone metabolism; menaquinone biosynthesis. Belongs to the ATP-dependent AMP-binding enzyme family. MenE subfamily.
