Phenol degradative meta -pathway. Depending on the substitution, the phenolic compounds are degraded either via the hydrolytic or the 4-oxalocrotonate route. 4OD, OC decarboxylase; 4OT, OC tautomerase; AcDH, acetaldehyde dehydrogenase; C23O, catechol 2,3-dioxygenase; HMA, 2-hydroxymuconic acid; HMSA, 2-hydroxymuconic acid-6-semialdehyde; HMSA-DH, HMSA dehydrogenase; HMSA-H, HMSA hydrolase; HOV, 4-hydroxy-2-oxovalerate; HOVA, HOV aldolase; OC, 4-oxalocrotonate; OE, 2-oxopent-4-dienoate; OEH, OE hydratase; PH, phenol hydroxylase.
