Protein Domain : IPR013480

Type:  Family Name:  Nitrogen fixation protein NifX
Description:  NifX is involved in the biosynthesis of the iron-molybdenum cofactor (FeMo-Co) found in the dinitrogenase enzyme of the nitrogenase complex in nitrogen-fixing bacteria. This complex catalyses the reduction of atmospheric dinitrogen to ammonia. The role of NifX in cofactor biosynthesis is not fully understood, though it appears to be associated with mature FeMo-Co and may be involved in the addition of heterometal and/or homocitrate []. Short Name:  NifX
