The double bonds of 2-hydroxy-6-oxo-6-phenylhexa-2, 4-dienoic acid (HOPDA) were stabilized by methylation to establish which of the double bonds of the meta ring-fission compound of biphenyl was reduced by the HOPDA reducing enzyme. HOPDA reducing enzyme III converted 2-methoxy-6-oxo-6-phenylhexa-2, 4-dienoic acid methyl ester into 2-methoxy-6-oxo-6-phenylhexa-2-enoic acid methyl ester. To discover the metabolic pathway of HOPDA, partially purified enzyme fractions were used. The eluate from a 2nd column of DEAE-cellulose transformed HOPDA to γ-benzoylbutyric acid, 2, 6-dioxo-6-phenylhexanoic acid, and γ-benzoylbutyraldehyde. Fractions passed through the 1st column of DEAE-cellulose formed γ-benzoylbutyric acid and 2-hydroxy-6-oxo-6-phenylhexanoic acid from HOPDA. Based on these data and previous reports, a new metabolic divergence of biphenyl and related compounds was proposed.
