Abstract
It is believed that nitrogen-fixing eukaryotes do not exist in nature, and constructing such eukaryotes is extremely challenging. Coale et al., however, have identified the first eukaryote capable of fixing nitrogen through a nitroplast organelle. Understanding the eukaryotic nitrogen-fixing machinery may advance the development of artificial nitrogen-fixing crops and industrial yeasts.
