Gases like H2, N2, CO2, and CO are increasingly recognized as critical feedstock in “green”
energy conversion and as sources of nitrogen and carbon for the agricultural and chemical …

The production of synthetic ammonia remains dependent on the energy-and capital-
intensive Haber–Bosch process. Extensive research in molecular catalysis has …

Nitrogenase is the enzyme that catalyzes biological N2 reduction to NH3. This enzyme
achieves an impressive rate enhancement over the uncatalyzed reaction. Given the high …

Nitrogen is an essential element contained in many biomolecules necessary to sustain life.
1, 2 This element is abundantly available in Earth's atmosphere in the form of dinitrogen …

Nitrogenases are responsible for biological nitrogen fixation, a crucial step in the
biogeochemical nitrogen cycle. These enzymes utilize a two-component protein system and …

Biological nitrogen fixation is catalyzed by the enzyme nitrogenase, which facilitates the
cleavage of the relatively inert triple bond of N2. Nitrogenase is most commonly associated …

In nature, nitrogen fixation is one of the most important life processes and occurs primarily in
microbial organisms containing enzymes called nitrogenases. These complex proteins …

Nitrogen-fixing bacteria catalyze the reduction of dinitrogen (N2) to two ammonia molecules
(NH3), the major contribution of fixed nitrogen to the biogeochemical nitrogen cycle. The …

The iron-molybdenum cofactor (FeMo-co), located at the active site of the molybdenum
nitrogenase, is one of the most complex metal cofactors known to date. During the past …

Methane (CH4) is a potent greenhouse gas that is released from fossil fuels and is also
produced by microbial activity, with at least one billion tonnes of CH4 being formed and …
