Control of electron transfer in nitrogenase.
Current Opinion in Chemical Biology, 2018 The bacterial enzyme nitrogenase achieves the reduction of dinitrogen (N2) to ammonia (NH3) utilizing electrons, protons, and energy from the hydrolysis of ATP. Building on earlier foundational knowledge, recent studies provide molecular-level details on

A Specific Sinorhizobium Flagellin Suppresses Legume Nodulation Through Immune Activation
Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 5, Page 3441-3457, May 2026.ABSTRACT Bacterial flagellin‐activated immunity plays a crucial role in shaping plant‐microbe interactions, leading to either parasitism, mutualism, or commensalism. In the legume‐rhizobium symbiosis, while it has been hypothesized that rhizobial infection involves avoidance of plant immunity following flagellin perception, direct evidence supporting ...

Hopanoid lipids may facilitate aerobic nitrogen fixation in the ocean. [PDF]
, 2019 Cyanobacterial diazotrophs are considered to be the most important source of fixed N2 in the open ocean. Biological N2 fixation is catalyzed by the extremely O2-sensitive nitrogenase enzyme.

Tracing the ‘9th Sulfur’ of the Nitrogenase Cofactor via a Semi-Synthetic Approach
Nature Chemistry, 2018 The M-cluster is the [(homocitrate)MoFe7S9C] active site of nitrogenase that is derived from an 8Fe core assembled viacoupling and rearrangement of two [Fe4S4] clusters concomitant with the insertion of an interstitial carbon and a ‘ninth sulfur ...

Is there a niche complementarity for nitrate uptake among savannah shrub and tree species in a very deep Brazilian soil? [PDF]
, 2019 Belowground niche complementarity between deep-rooted and shallow-rooted species in mixed forests may result in a more complete exploitation of soil resources than in monocultures.

Application of photosynthetic N2-fixing cyanobacteria to the CELSS program [PDF]
Commercially available air lift fermentors were used to simultaneously monitor biomass production, N2-fixation, photosynthesis, respiration, and sensitivity to oxidative damage during growth under various nutritional and light regimes, to establish a ...
