Abstract Metallothioneins (MTs), small cysteine-rich proteins, present in four major isoforms,
are key proteins involved in zinc and copper homeostasis in mammals. To date, only one X …

Zinc is the second most abundant trace element in the human body, and it plays a
fundamental role in human physiology, being an integral component of hundreds of …

Zinc (Zn2+) is an essential metal in biology, and its bioavailability is highly regulated. Many
cell types exhibit fluctuations in Zn2+ that appear to play an important role in cellular …

Autophagy is an essential catabolic cellular homeostasis process conserved in all
eukaryotes. BECN1/Beclin 1, a key autophagy protein involved in autophagosome …

Two new mono‐and dinuclear zinc (II) complexes with a formula of [Zn (LN) OMeCl](1) and
[Zn2 (LN)(N3) 2Cl2](2)[where LN= 1, 1, 3, 3‐tetrakis (3, 5‐dimethyl‐1‐pyrazolyl) propane)] …

Here, using human metallothionein (MT2) as an example, we describe an improved strategy
based on differential alkylation coupled to MS, assisted by zinc probe monitoring, for …

InterMetalDB is a free-of-charge database and browser of intermolecular metal binding sites
that are present on the interfaces of macromolecules forming larger assemblies based on …

Zinc has been considered as a vital constituent of proteins, including enzymes. Mobile
reactive zinc (Zn 2+) is the key form of zinc involved in signal transductions, which are …

The binding of metal ions at the interface of protein complexes presents a unique and poorly
understood mechanism of molecular assembly. A remarkable example is the Rad50 zinc …

The optic nerve conveys information about the outside world from the retina to multiple
subcortical relay centers. Until recently, the optic nerve was widely believed to be incapable …
