Role of copper and iron in methane oxidation and bacterial biopolymer accumulation

The aim of this review was to elucidate the role of copper and iron in regulating methane (CH4) oxidation and subsequent biopolymer (i.e. polyhydroxyalkanoate [PHA]) accumulation in methanotrophic bacteria. Specifically, the review emphasizes the “copper switch mechanism” that alters CH4 oxidizing e...
