The nitrogenase superfamily comprises homologous enzyme systems that carry out fundamentally important processes, including the reduction of N₂ and CO, and the biosynthesis of bacteriochlorophyll and coenzyme F430. This special issue provides a cross-disciplinary overview of the ongoing research in this highly diverse and unique research area of metalloprotein biochemistry.
