The enzyme nitrogenase is responsible for the binding of nitrogen. One of the most serious problems with the transfer to plants is that nitrogenase is extremely sensitive to atmospheric oxygen ...

Recent studies have provided significant insights into the mechanisms of nitrogenase. One study demonstrated that nitrogenase captures N 2 by mobilizing belt-sulfur atoms within its M-cluster ...

The biological route to fixing nitrogen is done by diazotrophs, nitrogen-fixing bacteria that contain an enzyme called nitrogenase. In contrast to the Haber-Bosch process, nitrogenase can be ...

A research team has discovered how the 'Shethna protein II' protects the nitrogen-fixing enzyme nitrogenase from damage. The oxygen sensor protein could help to make nitrogenase usable in ...

Nitrogenase, Nitrogenase-Komplex, das für die biologische Fixierung des atmosphärischen Stickstoffs verantwortliche Enzym. N. besteht aus den beiden Schlüsselenzymkomponenten Dinitrogenase-Reductase ...
