Biosynthesis of the nitrogenase active-site cofactor precursor NifB-co in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

The radical S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) enzyme NifB occupies a central and essential position in nitrogenase biogenesis. NifB catalyzes the formation of an [8Fe-9S-C] cluster, called NifB-co, which constitutes the core of the active-site cofactors for all 3 nitrogenase types. Here, we produce functio...
