Oxidation Reactions Performed by Soluble Methane Monooxygenase Hydroxylase Intermediates H[subscript peroxo] and Q Proceed by Distinct Mechanisms
Soluble methane monooxygenase is a bacterial enzyme that converts methane to methanol at a carboxylate-bridged diiron center with exquisite control. Because the oxidizing power required for this transformation is demanding, it is not surprising that the enzyme is also capable of hydroxylating and ep...
