37 results about "Methanol dehydrogenase" patented technology

In enzymology, a methanol dehydrogenase is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction: methanol ⇌ formaldehyde + 2 electrons + 2H⁺ How the electrons are captured and transported depends upon the kind of methanol dehydrogenase and there are two main types. A common electron acceptor in biological systems is nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD⁺) and some enzymes use a related molecule called nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP⁺).
