Molybdenum nitrogenase plays a crucial role in the biological nitrogen cycle by catalyzing the reduction of dinitrogen (N) to ammonia (NH) under ambient conditions. However, the underlying mechanisms of nitrogenase catalysis, including electron and proton transfer dynamics, remain only partially understood. In this study, we covalently attached molybdenum nitrogenase (MoFe) to gold electrodes and utilized surface-enhanced infrared absorption spectroscopy (SEIRA) coupled with electrochemistry techniques to investigate its catalytic mechanism.

Background: Molybdenum cofactor deficiency (MoCD) is a rare metabolic disorder caused by pathogenic variants in the highly conserved biosynthetic pathway of molybdenum cofactor (MoCo), resulting in sulfite intoxication. MoCD may present in a clinically severe, fatal form marked by intractable seizures after birth, hyperekplexia, microcephaly and cerebral atrophy, or a later onset form with a more varied clinical course. Three types of MoCD have been described based on the effected gene along the MoCo synthesis pathway: type A (MOCS1); type B (MOCS2 or MOCS3) and type C (GPHN).

Nitrate reductases play pivotal roles in nitrogen metabolism by leveraging the molybdopterin cofactor to facilitate the reduction of nitrate to nitrite. Periplasmic nitrate reductases (NapA) utilize nitrate as a terminal electron acceptor when oxygen is limiting, helping to drive anaerobic metabolism in bacteria. Despite extensive research into NapA homologs, open questions about the mechanism remain especially at the molecular level.

In this work, an efficient Fe-MIL-88@1T-MoS dual-nanozyme and hollow CeO mono-nanozyme were synthesized as coreaction accelerators to fabricate an electrochemiluminescence (ECL) immunosensor for the detection of the N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP). First, the peroxidase-like activity of the proposed Fe-MIL-88@1T-MoS dual-nanozyme was found to be superior to that of individual Fe-MIL-88 and MoS, owing to the synergistic catalytic effect caused by the heterostructure. Therefore, it could be utilized as an ideal coreaction accelerator to boost HO decomposition and subsequently generate abundant reactive oxygen species, which could promote electrical oxidation of ABEI and obtain a high ECL signal.

Developing the chemistry of octahedral chalcogenide molybdenum and tungsten cluster complexes in the context of applications in biology and medicine, in this work a series of water-soluble neutral cluster complexes [{MQ}(P(CHCONH))] (M = Mo, W; Q = S, Se) have been obtained by simultaneous replacement of inner and terminal halide ligands in [{MI}I] with chalcogenide and organic phosphine ligands and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis, H and P NMR spectroscopies, elemental analysis, and UV-vis spectroscopy. The amide groups of the organic ligands, on the one hand, contribute to the solubility of the resulting clusters in water and, on the other hand, are able to form an extensive network of hydrogen bonds, leading to the crystallization of the complexes from aqueous solutions. Despite this fact, the complexes have sufficient solubility and stability in aqueous solutions, which made it possible to demonstrate their low cytotoxicity on Hep-2 cells (IC were not reached even at concentration up to 4 mM).
