  • Nitrogen fixation is a chemical process that converts molecular nitrogen (N 2) in the air into ammonia (NH 3) or similar nitrogenous chemicals, usually in soil or aquatic environments but sometimes in industry.
  • All but a few microorganisms cannot use atmospheric nitrogen because it is molecular dinitrogen, a relatively nonreactive molecule.
  • The nitrogenase protein complex converts dinitrogen (N2) gas to ammonia (NH3) during biological nitrogen fixation, also known as diazotrophy (Nif).
  • Because all nitrogen-containing organic substances, including as amino acids and proteins, nucleoside triphosphates, and nucleic acids, require the production of fixed inorganic nitrogen compounds, nitrogen fixation is vital to life.
  • It's necessary for agriculture and fertiliser production because it's part of the nitrogen cycle.
