Substrate Interactions with Nitrogenase: Fe versus Mo

Seefeldt, Lance C., Dance, Ian G., Dean, Dennis R.·2004·Biochemistry

Abstract

Biological nitrogen reduction is catalyzed by a complex two-component metalloenzyme called nitrogenase. For the Mo-dependent enzyme, the site of substrate reduction is provided by a [7Fe-9S-Mo-X-homocitrate] metallocluster, where X is proposed to be an N atom. Recent progress with organometallic model compounds, theoretical calculations, and biochemical, kinetic, and biophysical studies on nitrogenase has led to the formulation of two opposing models of where N(2) or alternative substrates might bind during catalysis. One model involves substrate binding to the Mo atom, whereas the other model involves the participation of one or more Fe atoms located in the central region of the metallocluster. Recently gathered evidence that has provided the basis for both models is summarized, and a perspective on future research in resolving this fundamental mechanistic question is presented.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
