Citation | Journal: Nat Struct Mol Biol / Year: 2024Title: Structural insights into the iron nitrogenase complex. Authors: Frederik V Schmidt / Luca Schulz / Jan Zarzycki / Simone Prinz / Niels N Oehlmann / Tobias J Erb / Johannes G Rebelein / ![]() Abstract: Nitrogenases are best known for catalyzing the reduction of dinitrogen to ammonia at a complex metallic cofactor. Recently, nitrogenases were shown to reduce carbon dioxide (CO) and carbon monoxide ...Nitrogenases are best known for catalyzing the reduction of dinitrogen to ammonia at a complex metallic cofactor. Recently, nitrogenases were shown to reduce carbon dioxide (CO) and carbon monoxide to hydrocarbons, offering a pathway to recycle carbon waste into hydrocarbon products. Among the three nitrogenase isozymes, the iron nitrogenase has the highest wild-type activity for the reduction of CO, but the molecular architecture facilitating these activities has remained unknown. Here, we report a 2.35-Å cryogenic electron microscopy structure of the ADP·AlF-stabilized iron nitrogenase complex from Rhodobacter capsulatus, revealing an [FeSC-(R)-homocitrate] cluster in the active site. The enzyme complex suggests that the iron nitrogenase G subunit is involved in cluster stabilization and substrate channeling and confers specificity between nitrogenase reductase and catalytic component proteins. Moreover, the structure highlights a different interface between the two catalytic halves of the iron and the molybdenum nitrogenase, potentially influencing the intrasubunit 'communication' and thus the nitrogenase mechanism. | |||||||||
