Synthetic molecular cluster hints at mechanism of nitrogen fixation

Daniël L. J. Broere ()

Nature, 2022, vol. 607, issue 7917, 37-38

Abstract: Enzymes use molecular clusters containing iron and sulfur atoms to bind and ‘fix’ nitrogen gas into a bioavailable form. A synthetic cluster that binds and reduces nitrogen molecules casts light on the mechanism of fixation.
