Reagents and methods for the expression of an active NifB protein and uses thereof

摘要

The invention relates to reagents and methods that allow the expression of an active NifB protein in yeast and plants under aerobic conditions. The active NifB protein allows the in vitro synthesis of the FeMo cofactor (FeMo-co) which leads to the subsequent apo-NifDK activation and generation of active nitrogenase.
