Illustration of a molybdenum nitrogenase enzyme. Nitrogenase enzymes are proteins which convert nitrogen gas to ammonia, a catalytic process called nitrogen fixation. This process is vital for life on earth. A nitrogen molecule (blue) interacts with a molybdenum complex containing iron (orange) and sulphur (yellow). The complex participates in the flow of electrons reducing the nitrogen molecule to ammonia.
