FUNCTION | The key enzymatic reactions in nitrogen fixation are catalyzed by the nitrogenase complex, which has 2 components: the iron protein and the molybdenum-iron protein. |
CATALYTIC ACTIVITY | Reaction=N2 + 8 reduced [2Fe-2S]-[ferredoxin] + 16 ATP + 16 H2O = H2 + 8 oxidized [2Fe-2S]-[ferredoxin] + 2 NH4(+) + 16 ADP + 16 phosphate + 6 H(+); Xref=Rhea:RHEA:21448, Rhea:RHEA-COMP:10000, Rhea:RHEA- COMP:10001, ChEBI:CHEBI:15377, ChEBI:CHEBI:15378, ChEBI:CHEBI:17997, ChEBI:CHEBI:18276, ChEBI:CHEBI:28938, ChEBI:CHEBI:30616, ChEBI:CHEBI:33737, ChEBI:CHEBI:33738, ChEBI:CHEBI:43474, ChEBI:CHEBI:456216; EC=1.18.6.1; |
COFACTOR | Name=[4Fe-4S] cluster; Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:49883; Note=Binds 1 [4Fe-4S] cluster per dimer.; |
SUBUNIT | Homodimer. |
case <FT:4> | |
PTM | The reversible ADP-ribosylation of #{Arg-101} inactivates the nitrogenase reductase and regulates nitrogenase activity. |
end case | |
SIMILARITY | Belongs to the NifH/BchL/ChlL family. |
