4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate oxidase: 2 3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)pyruvate + dioxygen→2 (4-hydroxyphenyl)acetate + 2 CO2 (EC 1.2.3.13)

No genes

4-hydroxyphenylacetate decarboxylase: (4-hydroxyphenyl)acetate + H+→4-methylphenol + CO2 (EC 4.1.1.83)

No genes

Candidate genes for each reaction are identified from best hits to MetaCyc; by matching EC numbers (which are assigned by TIGRFam, SEED, or best hits to KEGG); or by matching SEED roles to KEGG reactions to MetaCyc reactions. See the "Protein" tab of each gene for more information
