The study of the brightest cluster galaxy (BCG) coronae embedded in noncoolcore (NCC) galaxy clusters is crucial to understand the BCG's role in galaxycluster evolution as well as the activation of the self-regulated cooling andheating mechanism in the central regions of galaxy clusters. We explore theX-ray properties of the intracluster medium (ICM) of the NCC galaxy cluster MKW08 and the BCG corona, along with their interface region. With recent and deeparchival Chandra observations, we study the BCG corona in detail, and witharchival XMM-Newton observations, we investigate the implications of thecentral active galactic nuclei (AGN) on the BCG. We carry out imaging andspectral analyses of MKW 08 with archival XMM-Newton and Chandra X-rayobservations. Our spectral analysis suggests the presence of a central AGN by apower-law with a photon index of $\Gamma$ ~ 1.8 at the core of its BCG.Although the ICM does not exhibit a cluster scale cool core, the BCG manifestsitself as a mini cool core characterized by a cooling time as short as 64 Myrat r = 3 kpc centered at the galaxy. The isothermality of the BCG corona seemsto favor mechanical feedback from the central AGN as the major source of gasheating. The gas pressure profile of this mini cool core suggests that the BCGcoronal gas reaches pressure equilibrium with the hotter and less dense ICMinside an interface of nearly constant pressure, delimited by radii 4 < r < 10kpc at the galactic center. As revealed by the presence of a metal enrichedtail (Z ~ 0.5 - 0.9 Solar) extending up to 40 kpc, the BCG corona seems to beexperiencing ram-pressure stripping by the surrounding ICM and/or interactingwith a nearby galaxy, IC 1042.}
