Rethinking the Nitrogenase Mechanism: Activating the Active Site

{{output}}
Metalloenzymes called nitrogenases (N2ases) harness the reactivity of transition metals to reduce N2 to NH3. Specifically, N2ases feature a multimetallic active site, called a cofactor, which binds and reduces N2. The seven Fe centers and one additional metal ... ...
