molecular function |
| GO:0051537 | | 2 iron, 2 sulfur cluster binding | | Interacting selectively and non-covalently with a 2 iron, 2 sulfur (2Fe-2S) cluster; this cluster consists of two iron atoms, with two inorganic sulfur atoms found between the irons and acting as bridging ligands. |
| GO:0009055 | | electron carrier activity | | Any molecular entity that serves as an electron acceptor and electron donor in an electron transport chain. An electron transport chain is a process in which a series of electron carriers operate together to transfer electrons from donors to any of several different terminal electron acceptors to generate a transmembrane electrochemical gradient. |
| GO:0051536 | | iron-sulfur cluster binding | | Interacting selectively and non-covalently with an iron-sulfur cluster, a combination of iron and sulfur atoms. |
| GO:0046872 | | metal ion binding | | Interacting selectively and non-covalently with any metal ion. |
| GO:0015049 | | methane monooxygenase activity | | Catalysis of the reaction: methane + NAD(P)H + H+ + O2 = methanol + NAD(P)+ + H2O. |
| GO:0004497 | | monooxygenase activity | | Catalysis of the incorporation of one atom from molecular oxygen into a compound and the reduction of the other atom of oxygen to water. |
| GO:0016491 | | oxidoreductase activity | | Catalysis of an oxidation-reduction (redox) reaction, a reversible chemical reaction in which the oxidation state of an atom or atoms within a molecule is altered. One substrate acts as a hydrogen or electron donor and becomes oxidized, while the other acts as hydrogen or electron acceptor and becomes reduced. |
biological process |
| GO:0015947 | | methane metabolic process | | The chemical reactions and pathways involving methane, a colorless, odorless, flammable gas with the formula CH4. It is the simplest of the alkanes. |
| GO:0006730 | | one-carbon metabolic process | | The chemical reactions and pathways involving the transfer of one-carbon units in various oxidation states. |
| GO:0055114 | | oxidation-reduction process | | A metabolic process that results in the removal or addition of one or more electrons to or from a substance, with or without the concomitant removal or addition of a proton or protons. |
cellular component |
| GO:0015050 | | methane monooxygenase complex | | A protein complex that possesses methane monooxygenase activity; dimeric and trimeric complexes have been characterized. |
