BIOLOGICAL NITROGEN FIXATION KRT-2011
Beberapa tumbuhan dapat membentuk senyawa yang mengandung N dari udara • Melalui bakteri yang memfiksasi N inilah N atmosfir memasuki biosfer (lingkungan makhluk hayati) • Bakteri pemfiksasi N mereduksi N atmosfir menjadi amonia (NH3) NH4+ • Terdapat 2 bakteri yang memfiksasi N yaitu: Bakteri yang hidup bebas dan Bakteri yang bersimbiosis Rhizobium sp. • Bakteri mampu memanfaatkan berbagai sumber nitrogen untuk sintesis protein • Nitrogen merupakan elemen dari molekul biologis, spt: asam amino, nucleotides, protein dan DNA KRT-2011
The Nitrogen Cycle • Mineralization: Organic nitrogen (mostly amino acids) NH4+(All organisms) • Nitrification: NH4+ NO2- (Nitrosomonas) NO2- NO32- (Nitrobacter) • Denitrification: NO3- N2O N2O N2(Several species, including certain Pseudomonas and Bacillus) KRT-2011
The Nitrogen Cycle • Assimilatory Nitrate Reduction NO32- Organic Nitrogen (Many microbial species and plants) • N2 fixation N2 NH4+ Free-living nitrogen fixers eg Azotobacter and Azospirillum Symbiotic nitrogen fizers eg Rhizobium and BradyrhizobiumCyanobacteria attached to the cordgrass plant Spartina in salt marshes (=rawa?)

The Nitrogen Cycle KRT-2011
General view of nitrogen metabolism KRT-2011
Pathways Involved in Nitrogen Utilization 1. Protein Digestion – by proteinase & peptidase 2. Oxidative Deamination KRT-2011
3. Reductive Deamination 4. Decarboxylation KRT-2011
5. Transamination Reactions KRT-2011
6. Nitrification 7. Denitrification KRT-2011
Industrial Fixation • Di bawah tekanan tinggi, pada suhu 600oC, dan dengan penggunaan catalyst, nitrogen dan hydrogen atmosfir (biasanya turunan dari natural gas atau petroleum) dapat bergabung untuk membentuk ammonia (NH3). • Ammonia dapat digunakan secara langsung sebagai pupuk, tetapi umumnya diproses lebih lanjut menjadi ureadan ammonium nitrate (NH4NO3). KRT-2011
Biological Fixation • Kemampuan untuk memfiksasi nitrogen hanya ditemukan dalam bacteria tertentu. • Beberapa hidup dalam symbiotic relationship dengan tanaman dari famili legume (e.g., kedelai, alfalfa). • Beberapa ada yang bersimbiosis dengan tanaman selain legumes (e.g., alders). • Beberapa bakteri fiksasi-nitrogen hidup bebas dalam tanah • Nitrogen-fixing cyanobacteria penting untuk mempertahankan kesuburan dari lingkungan semi-aquatic seperti lahan padi KRT-2011
Biological Fixation cont. • Biological nitrogen fixation membutuhkan serangkaian enzymes dan penghasil ATP yang sangat besar. • Meskipun produk stabil pertama dari proses adalah ammonia, ini cepat diinkorporasi ke dalam protein dan senyawa nitrogenorganic lain • Para ilmuwan memperkirakan bahwa biological fixation secara global menambah kira-kira 140 million metric tons nitrogen kedalam ecosystems setiap tahun. KRT-2011
Some nitrogen fixing organisms • Free living aerobic bacteria • Azotobacter • Beijerinckia • Klebsiella • Cyanobacteria (lichens) • Free living anaerobic bacteria • Clostridium • Desulfovibrio • Purple sulphur bacteria • Purple non-sulphur bacteria • Green sulphur bacteria • Free living associative bacteria • Azospirillum • Symbionts • Rhizobium (legumes) • Frankia (alden trees) KRT-2011

Rank of Biological Nitrogen Fixation KRT-2011
Nitrogen Fixation • Semua bacteria fiksasi nitrogen menggunakan conserved enzyme complex yang disebut Nitrogenase • Nitrogenase tersusun dari dua subunits: an iron-sulfur protein dan a molybdenum-iron-sulfur protein • Aerobic organisms face special challenges to nitrogen fixation karena nitrogenase inactivasi bila oxygen bereaksi dengan iron component of the proteins KRT-2011

Types of Biological Nitrogen Fixation Free-living (asymbiotic) • Cyanobacteria • Azotobacter Associative • Rhizosphere–Azospirillum • Lichens–cyanobacteria • Leaf nodules Symbiotic • Legume-rhizobia • Actinorhizal-Frankia KRT-2011
Free-living N2 Fixation Energy • 20-120 g C used to fix 1 g N Combined Nitrogen • nif genes tightly regulated • Terhambat pada NH4+ and NO3- rendah (1 μg g-1 soil, 300 μM) Oxygen • Menghindar (anaerobes) • Microaerophilly • Respiratory protection • Specialized cells (heterocysts, vesicles) • Spatial/temporal separation • Conformational (=penyesuaian diri?) protection KRT-2011

Associative N2 Fixation • Phyllosphere or rhizosphere (tropical grasses) • Azosprillum, Acetobacter • 1 to 10% of rhizosphere population • Beberapa berada dalam akar • Same energy and oxygen limitations as free-living • Acetobacter diazotrophicus hidup dalam internal tissue dari tebu, tumbuh dalam 30% sucrose, dapat mencapai populasi 106 sampai 107 cells g-1 tissue, dan memfiksasi 100 to 150 kg N ha-1 y-1 KRT-2011

Frankia and Actinorhizal Plants • Actinomycetes (Gram +, filamentous); septate hyphae; spores in sporangia; thick-walled vesicles Frankia vesicles showing thick walls that confer protection from oxygen. Bars are 100 nm. KRT-2011
Alder and the other woody hosts of Frankia are typical pioneer species that invade nutrient-poor soils. These plants benefit from the nitrogen-fixing association, while supplying the bacterial symbiont with photosynthetic products. KRT-2011
