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 …

The multiscaling quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics (QM/MM) approach was
introduced in 1976, while the extensive acceptance of this methodology started in the 1990s …

“Nitrogen fixation”, the reduction of dinitrogen (N2) to two ammonia (NH3) molecules, by the
Mo-dependent nitrogenase is essential for all life. Despite four decades of research, a …

Understanding the coordination of dinitrogen to iron is important for understanding
biological nitrogen fixation as well as for designing synthetic systems that are capable of …

We have isolated and structurally characterized a terminal iron nitrido complex supported by
a bulky tris (carbene) borate ligand. The electronic structure of this complex reveals that the …

Nitrogenase is the sole enzyme responsible for the ATP‐dependent conversion of
atmospheric dinitrogen into the bioavailable form of ammonia (NH3), making this protein …

Massively converting nitrogen gas to ammonia is a key process in modern agricultural and
industrial fields. The conventional Haber–Bosch process for NH3 production has to be …

Der Zugang zu weiterführenden Informationen ist durch ein Literaturverzeichnis gegeben,
das schwerpunktmäßig Übersichtsartikel, aber auch neuere Originalarbeiten enthält …

Microalgae are viewed as a potential future agricultural and biofuel feedstock and also
provide an ideal biological means of carbon sequestration based on rapid growth rates and …
