Electron Flow and Management in Living Systems: Advancing Understanding of Electron Transfer to Nitrogenase
Nitrogen is a critical nutrient for growth and reproduction in living organisms. Although the Earth’s atmosphere is composed of ~80% nitrogen gas (N2), it is inaccessible to most living organisms in that form. Biological nitrogen fixation, however, can be performed by microbes that harbor the enzyme...
