ENZYME entry: EC 1.14.13.25

PURL: https://purl.expasy.org/enzyme/EC/1.14.13.25
Accepted Name
methane monooxygenase (soluble)
Alternative Name(s)
methane hydroxylase
Reaction catalysed
  • methane + NADH + O2 + H(+) = methanol + NAD(+) + H2O
  • methane + NADPH + O2 + H(+) = methanol + NADP(+) + H2O
Comment(s)
  • The enzyme is soluble, in contrast to the particulate enzyme, EC 1.14.18.3.
  • Broad specificity; many alkanes can be hydroxylated, and alkenes are converted into the corresponding epoxides; CO is oxidized to CO2, ammonia is oxidized to hydroxylamine, and some aromatic compounds and cyclic alkanes can also be hydroxylated, but more slowly.
