CC -!- FUNCTION: The key enzymatic reactions in nitrogen fixation are
CC catalyzed by the nitrogenase complex, which has 2 components: the iron
CC protein and the molybdenum-iron protein. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-
CC Rule:MF_00533}.
CC -!- CATALYTIC ACTIVITY:
CC Reaction=16 ATP + 16 H2O + N2 + 8 reduced [2Fe-2S]-[ferredoxin] = 16
CC ADP + 6 H(+) + H2 + 2 NH4(+) + 8 oxidized [2Fe-2S]-[ferredoxin] + 16
CC phosphate; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:21448, Rhea:RHEA-COMP:10000, Rhea:RHEA-

CC Rule:MF_00533};
CC -!- COFACTOR:
CC Name=[4Fe-4S] cluster; Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:49883;
CC Evidence={ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_00533};
CC Note=Binds 1 [4Fe-4S] cluster per dimer. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-
CC Rule:MF_00533};
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Homodimer. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_00533}.
CC -!- PTM: The reversible ADP-ribosylation of Arg-103 inactivates the
CC nitrogenase reductase and regulates nitrogenase activity.
CC {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_00533}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the NifH/BchL/ChlL family. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-
CC Rule:MF_00533}.
