| Description | Nitrogenase, also called dinitrogenase, is the enzyme which catalyses the conversion of molecular nitrogen to ammonia (biological nitrogen fixation) [ , ]. The most widespread and most efficient nitrogenase contains a molybdenum cofactor. This protein family, VnfK, represents the beta subunit of the vanadium-containing V nitrogenase. It is homologous to NifK and AnfK, of the molybdenum-containing and the iron-only types, respectively. |
