ENZYME entry: EC 1.14.13.25
Accepted Name |
methane monooxygenase (soluble).
|
Alternative Name(s) |
methane hydroxylase. |
Reaction catalysed |
- H(+) + methane + NADH + O2 <=> H2O + methanol + NAD(+)
- H(+) + methane + NADPH + O2 <=> H2O + methanol + NADP(+)
|
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.
