C D Blanchette et al, Printable enzyme embedded materials for methane to methanol conversion, Nature Communications, 15 June 2016, p 1
In US, the Lawrence Livermore Laboratory together with Northwestern University have developed a particulate methane monooxygenase (pMMO) catalyst to convert methane into methanol under mild conditions. The pMMO is formed in methanotropic bacteria, which has been converted into a polymer material and embedded within a silicon lattice in the form of mechanically robust gas-permeable micron-scale membrane structures.
