4-methylphenol + 4 oxidized [azurin] + H2O = 4 reduced [azurin] + 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde + 4 H(+)
4-hydroxyphenylacetate + H(+) = 4-methylphenol + CO2
L-tyrosine + S-adenosyl-L-methionine + NADPH = 2-iminoacetate + 4-methylphenol + 5'-deoxyadenosine + L-methionine + NADP(+)
4-methylphenol(in) = 4-methylphenol(out)
