The Fe2S2 cluster is a di-iron pair coordinated by the sulfur atoms of cysteine residues 42, 47, 50, and 82 Methylococcus capsulatus
1.14.13.25 Iron soluble methane monooxygenase consists of three subunits: a hydroxylase bridged with binuclear iron cluster, an NADH-dependent reductase component containing both flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) and ferredoxin [Fe2S2] cofactors, and regulatory protein which controls the reaction between the previous two. Low-temperature activation of methane is primarily achieved via Fe/Fe complex in the hydroxylase subunit. The Fe2S2 complex in soluble methane monooxygenase reductase only acts as a wired mediator to assist electron transport from the NAD/FAD redox couple to the di-iron complex in the hydroxylase. NAD and FAD simultaneously bind to a canyon region located midway between the two lobes in the reductase, forming a continuous wire, assisting the electron transport. The regulatory protein plays a vital role in helping the hydroxylase and reductase subunits to interface and causing conformational changes that control methane oxidation Methylosinus trichosporium

1.14.13.25 methane + NAD(P)H + H+ + O2 = methanol + NAD(P)+ + H2O reaction mechanism of enzyme sMMO. During methane oxidation, first, the regulatory protein docks at the alpha2beta2 interface of alpha2beta2gamma2 of hydroxylase and therefore triggering a conformational change in the alpha-subunit. Subsequently, the hydroxylase acts as a proton carrier allowing oxygen and methane interface with the di-iron center, overview Methylococcus capsulatus
