NifA is the master regulator of both nitrogenase systems in Rhodobacter capsulatus
Abstract Rhodobacter capsulatus fixes atmospheric nitrogen (N2) by a molybdenum (Mo)‐nitrogenase and a Mo‐free iron (Fe)‐nitrogenase, whose production is induced or repressed by Mo, respectively. At low nanomolar Mo concentrations, both isoenzymes are synthesized and contribute to nitrogen fixation....
