DE   phenylacetate decarboxylase.
CA   2-phenylacetate + H(+) = CO2 + toluene.
CC   -!- This bacterial enzyme, isolated from anoxic, toluene-producing
CC       microbial communities, is a glycyl radical enzyme.
CC   -!- It needs to be activated by a dedicated activating enzyme (PhdA).
CC   -!- The activase catalyzes the reductive cleavage of AdoMet, producing a
CC       5'-deoxyadenosyl radical that leads to the production of the glycyl
CC       radical in PhdB.
