Scheme 1.

Kinetic scheme depicting ATP-dependent electron transfer between the component proteins of nitrogenase. Av1 and Av2 denote the MoFe protein and Fe protein, respectively, from Azotobacter vinelandii. The superscripts R and Ox denote reduced and oxidized states of Av2, and the superscripts N and N-1 indicate the oxidation levels of Av1 before and after electron transfer from Av2. Fld, flavodoxin.
