Methane monooxygenases (MMOs) are enzymes that catalyze the oxidation of methane to
methanol in methanotrophic bacteria. As potential targets for new gas-to-liquid methane …

Methane-utilizing bacteria (methanotrophs) are a diverse group of gram-negative bacteria
that are related to other members of the Proteobacteria. These bacteria are classified into …
