GN Name=nifK; OS Herbaspirillum seropedicae. OC Bacteria; Proteobacteria; Betaproteobacteria; Burkholderiales; OC Oxalobacteraceae; Herbaspirillum. OX NCBI_TaxID=964; RN [1] RP NUCLEOTIDE SEQUENCE. RC STRAIN=Z78; RX MEDLINE=97365591; PubMed=9222418; RA Machado I.M.P., Yates M.G., Machado H.B., Souza E.M., Pedrosa F.O.; RT "Cloning and sequencing of the nitrogenase structural genes nifHDK of RT Herbaspirillum seropedicae."; RL Braz. J. Med. Biol. Res. 29:1599-1602(1996). CC -!- FUNCTION: The key enzymatic reactions in nitrogen fixation are CC catalyzed by the nitrogenase complex, which has 2 components: the CC iron protein and the molybdenum-iron protein. CC -!- CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: 3 reduced ferredoxin + 6 H(+) + N(2) + n ATP = CC 3 oxidized ferredoxin + 2 NH(3) + n ADP + n phosphate. CC -!- SUBUNIT: Tetramer of two alpha and two beta chains that binds 30- CC 32 Fe, 2 Mo, and inorganic sulfur. CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the nifD/nifK/nifE/nifN family.
