additional information | sMMO is known to oxidize a variety of hydrocarbons, including alkanes ranging from methane to octane. The presence of 1,6-hexanediol near the di-iron center can be explained by the opening of the cavity, mediated by the side-chain rearrangement of Leu110 and Phe188, both of which function together as a gate for substrate and product passage to the active site. While MMOB is known to connect cavities for substrate access, the MMOD-mediated cavity opening appears to be a consequence of MMOHbeta-NT dissociation and subsequent structural relaxation of MMOHalpha. Both substrate ingress and product egress may take place through the substrate access cavity and not through the pore located near the active site, at least for hydrocarbon chain substrates such as hexane | Methylosinus sporium | ? | - |

physiological function | soluble methane monooxygenase in methanotrophs converts methane to methanol under ambient conditions. The maximum catalytic activity of hydroxylase (MMOH) is achieved through the interplay of its regulatory protein (MMOB) and reductase. An additional auxiliary protein, MMOD, functions as an inhibitor for MMOH by competing with MMOB for MMOH association as well as by disrupting the active geometric form of the di-iron center. The expression level of MMOD is relatively low and it binds tightly with MMOH near the di-iron center. ApoMMOH (iron removed) in the presence of MMOD or MMOB demonstrates that both MMOD and MMOB block iron loading toward apoMMOH instead of promoting it. Both iron atoms show full occupancy at the di-iron center during structure refinement, indicating that there is no loss of iron upon MMOD association. One potential function is that MMOD acts as a protein chaperone to assist the protein folding of MMOH by protecting MMOH until MMOHbeta-NT latches on as the final step of the protein folding process, potential function of MMOD as a protein chaperone | Methylosinus sporium |
