Purple sulfur bacteria fix N(2) via molybdenum-nitrogenase in a low molybdenum Proterozoic ocean analogue

Biological N(2) fixation was key to the expansion of life on early Earth. The N(2)-fixing microorganisms and the nitrogenase type used in the Proterozoic are unknown, although it has been proposed that the canonical molybdenum-nitrogenase was not used due to low molybdenum availability.
