Novel methylomonas sp. strain and use thereof

The present invention relates to a novel strain Methylomonas sp. DH-1 and a use thereof and, more specifically, to a strain Methylomonas sp. DH-1, deposited as Accession Number KCTC13004BP, synthesizing methanol from methane, to a composition containing a culture product of the strain for synthesizing methanol, a kit comprising the composition for synthesizing methanol, and to a method for producing methanol by using the strain. The use of the strain Methylomonas sp. DH-1 of the present invention can achieve a mass production of methanol more promptly, and the produced methanol can be widely utilized in the production of a biodegradable plastic and the application to a biofuel, such as a methanol fuel cell or a gasoline engine.
