3-hydroxybenzoate—CoA ligase (EC 6.2.1.37, 3-hydroxybenzoyl-CoA synthetase, 3-hydroxybenzoate-coenzyme A ligase (AMP-forming), 3-hydroxybenzoyl coenzyme A synthetase, 3-hydroxybenzoyl-CoA ligase) is an enzyme with systematic name 3-hydroxybenzoate:CoA ligase (AMP-forming). This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

ATP + 3-hydroxybenzoate + CoA ⇌ AMP + diphosphate + 3-hydroxybenzoyl-CoA

The enzyme works equally well with 4-hydroxybenzoate.
