N(2) Binding to an Iron-Sulfur-Carbon Site

Nitrogenases are found in some microorganisms, and these enzymes convert atmospheric N(2) to ammonia, thereby providing essential nitrogen atoms for higher organisms. Some nitrogenases reduce atmospheric N(2) at the FeMoco, a sulfur-rich iron-molybdenum cluster(1–5). The iron centers that are coordi...
