Biosynthesis of Nitrogenase Cofactors [PDF]

open access: yesChemical Reviews, 2020
Nitrogenase harbors three distinct metal prosthetic groups that are required for its activity. The simplest one is a [4Fe-4S] cluster located at the Fe protein nitrogenase component.

Electron Transfer in Nitrogenase

open access: yesChemical Reviews, 2020
Nitrogenase is the only enzyme capable of reducing N2 to NH3. This challenging reaction requires the coordinated transfer of multiple electrons from the reductase, Fe-protein, to the catalytic component, MoFe-protein, in an ATP-dependent fashion.

Structural Enzymology of Nitrogenase Enzymes

open access: yesChemical Reviews, 2020
The reduction of dinitrogen to ammonia by nitrogenase reflects a complex choreography involving two component proteins, MgATP and reductant. At center stage of this process resides the active site cofactor, a complex metallocluster organized around a ...

Metal-Sulfur Compounds in N2 Reduction and Nitrogenase-Related Chemistry.

Chemical Reviews, 2020
Transition metal-sulfur (M-S) compounds are an indispensable means for biological systems to convert N2 into NH3 (biological N2 fixation), and these may have emerged by chemical evolution from a prebiotic N2 fixation system.

Nitrogenases

2018
Biological nitrogen fixation, the conversion of dinitrogen (N2) into ammonia (NH3), stands as a particularly challenging chemical process. As the entry point into a bioavailable form of nitrogen, biological nitrogen fixation is a critical step in the global nitrogen cycle.
