primarily regulated in Nature by methanotrophic bacteria, which consume methane gas as …

The continuing expansion of protein and genome sequence databases is an opportunity to
identify novel enzymes with biotechnological applications. Whether applied to enzymology …

Bacterial peroxidases are responsible for the reduction of hydrogen peroxide to water.
Found in the periplasm of gram-negative bacteria, they are one of the defense mechanisms …

Methanobactins (Mbns) are ribosomally synthesized and posttranslationally modified
peptide natural products released by methanotrophic bacteria under conditions of copper …

Aerobic methanotrophs, or methane-consuming microbes, are strongly dependent on
copper for their activity. To satisfy this requirement, some methanotrophs produce a copper …

Some methane-oxidizing bacteria use the ribosomally synthesized, posttranslationally
modified natural product methanobactin (Mbn) to acquire copper for their primary metabolic …

The diheme bacterial cytochrome c peroxidase (bC c P)/MauG superfamily is a diverse set of
enzymes that remains largely uncharacterized. One recently discovered member, MbnH …
