Cube-shaped iron-sulfur clusters support multiple bond between iron and nitrogen

In a number of biological processes, iron-sulfur clusters play a vital role, where they act as cofactors to enzymes. Research now shows that cubic clusters can support unusual bonding states. This study shows that the cluster copes well with a multiple bond between iron and nitrogen -- a structural motif that may be involved in biological nitrogen fixation.
