Differential inhibition in vivo of ammonia monooxygenase, soluble methane monooxygenase and membrane-associated methane monoxygenase by phenylacetylene.
Phenylacetylene was investigated as a differential inhibitor of ammonia monooxygenase (AMO), soluble methane monooxygenase (sMMO) and membrane-associated or particulate methane monooxygenase (pMMO) in vivo. At phenylacetylene concentrations > 1 microM, whole-cell AMO activity in Nitrosomonas europaea was completely inhibited. Phenylacetylene concentrations above 100 microM inhibited more than 9...
متن کاملElectron Transfer Control in Soluble Methane Monooxygenase
The hydroxylation or epoxidation of hydrocarbons by bacterial multicomponent monooxygenases (BMMs) requires the interplay of three or four protein components. How component protein interactions control catalysis, however, is not well understood. In particular, the binding sites of the reductase components on the surface of their cognate hydroxylases and the role(s) that the regulatory proteins ...
متن کاملInhibition of ammonia monooxygenase in Nitrosomonas europaea by carbon disulfide.
Carbon disulfide has long been recognized as a potent inhibitor of nitrification, and it is the likely active component in several nitrification inhibitors suitable for field use. The effects of this compound on Nitrosomonas europaea have been investigated, and the site of action has been determined. Low concentrations of CS2 (less than 400 microM) produced a time-dependent inhibition of ammoni...
متن کاملMembrane-associated methane monooxygenase from Methylococcus capsulatus (Bath).
An active preparation of the membrane-associated methane monooxygenase (pMMO) from Methylococcus capsulatus Bath was isolated by ion-exchange and hydrophobic interaction chromatography using dodecyl beta-D-maltoside as the detergent. The active preparation consisted of three major polypeptides with molecular masses of 47,000, 27,000, and 25,000 Da. Two of the three polypeptides (those with mole...
متن کاملMethane monooxygenase hydroxylase and B component interactions.
The interaction of the soluble methane monooxygenase regulatory component (MMOB) and the active site-bearing hydroxylase component (MMOH) is investigated using spin and fluorescent probes. MMOB from Methylosinus trichosporium OB3b is devoid of cysteine. Consequently, site-directed mutagenesis was used to incorporate single cysteine residues, allowing specific placement of the probe molecules. S...
