The enzyme 4-hydroxyphenylacetate decarboxylase ( EC 4.1.1.83) catalyzes the chemical reaction
- (4-hydroxyphenyl)acetate + H+ 4-methylphenol + CO2
This enzyme belongs to the family of lyases, specifically the carboxy-lyases, which cleave carbon-carbon bonds. The systematic name of this enzyme class is 4-(hydroxyphenyl)acetate carboxy-lyase (4-methylphenol-forming). Other names in common use include p-hydroxyphenylacetate decarboxylase, p-Hpd, 4-Hpd, and 4-hydroxyphenylacetate carboxy-lyase.
