Glutathione Metabolism in M. capsulatus
Description:
Methylococcus capsulatus is an obligate, Gram-negative methanotroph. Methanotrophs are responsible for the oxidation of biologically generated methane and therefore help reduce the amount of greenhouse gas that is released to Earth's atmosphere. The conversion of methane to biomass by M. capsulatus has been exploited for large-scale commercial production of microbial proteins by fermentation. Thus, the bacterium plays major roles in global carbon cycles, and in particular, substantially reduces emissions of biolo...
