mBioNitrogenases are the only enzymes able to fix gaseous nitrogen into bioavailable ammonia and hence are essential for sustaining life. Catalysis by nitrogenases requires both a large amount of ATP and electrons donated by strongly reducing ferredoxins or ...

\u3cem\u3eRhizobium phaseoli\u3c/em\u3e Symbiotic Mutants with Transposon Tn5 Insertions [PDF]
, 1984 Rhizobium phaseoli CFN42 DNA was mutated by random insertion of Tn5 from suicide plasmid pJB4JI to obtain independently arising strains that were defective in symbiosis with Phaseolus vulgaris but grew normally outside the plant.

Nitrogen regulation of protein–protein interactions and transcript levels of GlnK PII regulator and AmtB ammonium transporter homologs in Archaea [PDF]
, 2013 Gene homologs of GlnK PII regulators and AmtB-type ammonium transporters are often paired on prokaryotic genomes, suggesting these proteins share an ancient functional relationship.

State of the art in eukaryotic nitrogenase engineering
FEMS Microbiology Letters, 2017 Improving the ability of plants and plant-associated organisms to fix and assimilate atmospheric nitrogen has inspired plant biotechnologists for decades, not only to alleviate negative effects on nature from increased use and availability of reactive ...

Input of nitrogen from N2 fixation to northern grasslands [PDF]
, 2005 Forage legumes form N2-fixing symbioses with rhizobia and may thus make substantial contributions to the N pool in grasslands. However, to optimize their use as sources of N, it is important to elucidate the effects of management factors that influence ...

Science, 2011 Evolution![Figure][1] CREDIT: DR. RACHEL A. FOSTER On early Earth, abiotic processes formed the initial supply of fixed (bioavailable) nitrogen necessary to maintain basic metabolic functions. As life began to flourish, this supply probably couldn't meet demand, and evolutionary pressures selected for a means of biological nitrogen fixation. How did

Genomic and secondary metabolites of the marine cyanobacterium Capilliphycus salinus ALCB114379
Journal of Phycology, EarlyView.Abstract Assembling high‐quality genomes from underexplored environments can be helpful for understanding microbial diversity and identifying novel species. The Cyanobacterium type strain Capilliphycus salinus ALCB114379 is a representative of Oscillatoriales order isolated from a supralittoral zone of the south Atlantic Ocean in Brazil, an ecotone ...

Deep-Sea Archaea Fix and Share Nitrogen in Methane-Consuming Microbial Consortia [PDF]
, 2009 Nitrogen-fixing (diazotrophic) microorganisms regulate productivity in diverse ecosystems; however, the identities of diazotrophs are unknown in many oceanic environments. Using single-cell–resolution nanometer secondary ion mass spectrometry images of ^(

Nitrogenase Inhibition Limited Oxygenation of Earth's Proterozoic Atmosphere.
Trends in Plant Science, 2019 Cyanobacteria produced the oxygen that began to accumulate on Earth 2.5 billion years ago, at the dawn of the Proterozoic Eon. By 2.4 billion years ago, the Great Oxidation Event (GOE) marked the onset of an atmosphere containing oxygen.
