In the hydroxylation of the methyl group of p-cresol by an enzyme from Pseudomonas putida the oxygen atom is derived from water. Although a second reaction by the same enzyme converts the product, p-hydroxybenzyl alcohol, into the aldehyde, the alcohol is an enzyme-free intermediate.
在恶臭假单胞菌的一种酶将对甲酚甲基羟基化的反应中,氧原子来源于水。尽管同一酶的第二个反应将产物对羟基苄醇转化为醛,但该醇是无酶中间体。
