The correct option is A Nif gene
The nitrogen fixation enzymes are encoded by nif genes that are present in both free-living and symbiotic nitrogen-fixing bacteria.
Primary nitrogen fixation enzyme is nitrogenase complex.
Yeast alanine tRNA synthetase binds alanine to respective tRNA.
RNA synthetase enzyme catalyzes RNA synthesis in RNA viruses.
So, the correct answer is option A.
