Characterisation of the fixABCX operon in symbiotic nitrogen fixation

The fixABCX genes are essential for nitrogen fixation in R. leguminosarum bv. viciae 3841. Comparison of FixABCX to homologous proteins across the Kingdoms of Life suggests a role in electron transport to nitrogenase, which requires eight electrons per molecule of dinitrogen fixed. Mutation of this...
