CC -!- FUNCTION: This molybdenum-iron protein is part of the nitrogenase
CC complex that catalyzes the key enzymatic reactions in nitrogen
CC fixation. {ECO:0000256|ARBA:ARBA00002621}.
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 Name=[8Fe-7S] cluster; Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:21143;
CC Evidence={ECO:0000256|ARBA:ARBA00001919};
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Tetramer of two alpha and two beta chains. Forms complex with
CC the iron protein (nitrogenase component 2).
CC {ECO:0000256|ARBA:ARBA00011462}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the NifD/NifK/NifE/NifN family.
CC {ECO:0000256|RuleBase:RU004021}.
CC -!- CAUTION: The sequence shown here is derived from an EMBL/GenBank/DDBJ
CC whole genome shotgun (WGS) entry which is preliminary data.
CC {ECO:0000313|EMBL:ELS00720.1}.
