Inhibitors

Inhibitors Comment Organism Structure
NIFI1,2 a regulatory protein, inhibits nitrogenase by competing with Fe protein for binding to the MoFe protein, NifI1,2 inhibits ATP- and MoFe protein-dependent oxidation of the Fe protein, and NIFI1,2 binding prevents association of the two nitrogenase components, the inhibition is relieved by 2-oxoglutarate. NIFI1,2 is unable to bind to an AlF4- stabilized Fe protein:MoFe protein complex. Both nifI1 and nifI2 are required for regulation in vivo Methanococcus maripaludis
