On the basis of its generally accessible I/II redox couple and bioavailability, copper plays a
wide variety of roles in nature that mostly involve electron transfer (ET), O 2 binding …

Methanotrophs, cells that consume methane (CH4) as their sole source of carbon and
energy, play key roles in the global carbon cycle, including controlling anthropogenic and …

Methane is a potent greenhouse gas that contributes significantly to climate change and is
primarily regulated in Nature by methanotrophic bacteria, which consume methane gas as …

Copper (Cu) is an essential trace element for all living organisms and used as cofactor in
key enzymes of important biological processes, such as aerobic respiration or superoxide …

Methanotrophic bacteria oxidize methane to methanol in the first step of their metabolic
pathway. Two forms of methane monooxygenase (MMO) enzymes catalyze this reaction …

Aerobic methanotrophs have long been known to play a critical role in the global carbon
cycle, being capable of converting methane to biomass and carbon dioxide. Interestingly …

Methanotrophs are a group of bacteria possessing a highly specialized metabolism
restricted to the utilization of methane and methanol and are a subset of the methylotrophs …

Siderophores are extracellular iron-binding compounds that mediate iron transport into
many cells. We present evidence of analogous molecules for copper transport from methane …

Signaling proteins are tightly regulated spatially and temporally to perform multiple
functions. For Cdc42 and other guanosine triphosphatases, the subcellular location of …
