Structural Characterization of Two CO Molecules Bound to the Nitrogenase Active Site
Angewandte Chemie, 2020 As an approach towards unraveling the nitrogenase mechanism, we have studied the binding of CO to the active‐site FeMo‐cofactor. CO is not only an inhibitor of nitrogenase, but it is also a substrate, undergoing reduction to hydrocarbons (Fischer–Tropsch‐

Archaea, bacteria and termite, nitrogen fixation and sustainable plants production
Notulae Botanicae Horti Agrobotanici Cluj-Napoca, 2021 Certain bacteria and archaea are responsible for biological nitrogen fixation. Metabolic pathways usually are common between archaea and bacteria. Diazotrophs are categorized into two main groups namely: root-nodule bacteria and plant growth-promoting ...

Nitrogen Fixation Mutants of the Actinobacterium Frankia Casuarinae CcI3 [PDF]
, 2017 Frankia is a representative genus of nitrogen-fixing (N2-fixing) actinobacteria; however, the molecular mechanisms underlying various phenomena such as the differentiation of a N2 fixation-specific structure (vesicle) and the regulation of N2 fixation ...

Characterization of an M-Cluster-Substituted Nitrogenase VFe Protein
mBio, 2018 The Mo- and V-nitrogenases are two homologous members of the nitrogenase family that are distinguished mainly by the presence of different heterometals (Mo or V) at their respective cofactor sites (M- or V-cluster).

Nitrogenase beyond the Resting State: A Structural Perspective
Molecules, 2023 Nitrogenases have the remarkable ability to catalyze the reduction of dinitrogen to ammonia under physiological conditions. How does this happen? The current view of the nitrogenase mechanism focuses on the role of hydrides, the binding of dinitrogen in ...

CO Binding to the FeV Cofactor of CO‐Reducing Vanadium Nitrogenase at Atomic Resolution
Angewandte Chemie, 2020 Nitrogenases reduce N2, the most abundant element in Earth's atmosphere that is otherwise resistant to chemical conversions due to its stable triple bond.

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.Association of the L‐cluster with the nitrogenase assembly proteins NifEN (NifENL) or NifB (NifBL) intrinsically endows these proteins with N2‐reducing activity, enabling in vitro N2‐reduction by NifENL and NifBL when supplied with chemical reductants or photoexcited quantum dots while supporting in vivo N2‐fixation in NifENL‐ and NifENL‐expressing ...

Test of Host Sanction Hypothesis in Soybean Plants Co-inoculated with Nitrogen Fixing and Non-fixing Bradyrhizobium japonicum [PDF]
, 2015 Aims: We tested the proposed mechanism for potential sanctions, that the plant would reduce viability of non-fixing rhizobia inside nodules, performing viable Bradyrhizobium japonicum counts from co-occupied and single-occupied nodules in co-inoculated ...
