Title:
NOVEL PROTEIN HAVING METHANE OXIDATION ACTIVITY
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2022/231183
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a protein in which ferritin monomers, in which a methane oxidation activity domain, and an electron transfer domain comprising a flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD)-binding domain are fused, are self-assembled, and to: a protein which can oxidize methane by using NADH in vivo as a reducing agent, thus being capable of oxidizing methane to methanol without using a separate reducing agent; a microorganism expressing same; a composition for producing methanol by using same; and a method for producing methanol.
