Feruloyl-CoA Synthetase activates ferulic acid by converting it into feruloyl-CoA as the third step in the vanillin biosynthesis pathway. The process involves the activation through CoA-thioesterification. We tested two FCS enzymes for this pathway step; this enzyme from Streptomyces, and also a homolog from Pseudomonas.
