Abstract excerpt
The P-cluster of nitrogenase is one of the most complex biological metallocenters known to date. Despite the recent advances in the chemical synthesis of P-cluster topologs, the biosynthetic mechanism of P-cluster has not been well defined. Here, we present a combined biochemical, electron paramagnetic resonance, and X-ray absorption spectroscopy/extended X-ray absorption fine-structure investigation of the...
