摘要: Acetylene was shown to be an inhibitor of cell-free methane monooxygenase (MMO) activity in Methylococcus capsulatus (Bath). Inhibition demonstrated for both the soluble and particulate forms enzyme dependent on presence NADH oxygen. Inactivation complex irreversible due binding acetylene specific proteins complex. The use radiolabelled [14C]acetylene provided a method visualisation bound inhibitor: protein sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE). bind which are associated with methane-oxidising it is proposed that acts as suicide substrate.
