Nitrogen metabolism
Nitrogen metabolism, or nitrogen fixation, is the chemical conversion of nitrogen (N2) to ammonia (NH3). N2 is only unusable by some microorganisms because it contains a triple covalent bond, so nitrogen fixation allows nitrogen to be accessible to most organisms. Nitrogenase enzymes are required to facilitate this conversion.
