Methane monooxygenase (particulate) (EC 1.14.18.3) is an enzyme with systematic name methane,quinol:oxygen oxidoreductase.[1][2][3][4] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

methane + quinol + O2 methanol + quinone + H2O

Methane monooxygenase contains copper. It is membrane-bound enzyme present in methanotrophs.
