MMO catalyzes the conversion of CH<sub>4</sub> and O<sub>2</sub> to CH<sub>3</sub>OH and H<sub>2</sub>O using NADPH as reducing agent. The '''soluble MMO (sMMO)''' has Fe-O-Fe in its active site<ref>PMID:7826011</ref> while the '''particulate MMO (pMMO)''' has Cu in it<ref>PMID:21419924</ref>. MMO is composed of 3 subunits.<br /> |

- | + | * Subunit β is a reductase which contains the co-factors FAD and 2Fe-2S complex.<br /> | |
- | + | * Subunit γ is regulatory (MMOR) and is involved in coupling.<br /> | |
