The transition or d-block metal ions manganese, iron, cobalt, nickel, copper, zinc and to a
more specialized degree molybdenum, tungsten, and vanadium have been shown to be …

When rabbits are simultaneous injected with arsenite and selenite or mercuric chloride and
selenite, compounds with As–Se and Hg–Se bonds are formed in the bloodstream. The …

Targeting of newly synthesized membrane proteins to the endoplasmic reticulum is an
essential cellular process. Most membrane proteins are recognized and targeted co …

This chapter will focus on recent progress on the mechanisms of metalloid uptake,
metabolism, and detoxification in bacteria, archaea, and eukaryotic microbes. One of the …

The mechanisms of action of arsenic trioxide (ATO), a clinically used drug for the treatment
of acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL), have been actively studied mainly through …

ATPases are involved in several cellular functions, and are at the origin of various human
diseases. They are therefore attractive drug targets, and various ATPase inhibitors are …

ATP-binding cassette transporters are responsible for the uptake and efflux of a multitude of
substances across both eukaryotic and prokaryotic membranes. Members of this family of …

Adenosine 5′-triphosphate (ATP) plays an essential role in all forms of life. Molecular
recognition of ATP in proteins is a subject of great importance for understanding enzymatic …

Summary The ATPase activity of MinD is required for it to oscillate between the ends of the
cell and spatially regulate cell division in Escherichia coli. It is a member of a functionally …

Tail-anchored (TA) membrane proteins are involved in a variety of important cellular
functions, including membrane fusion, protein translocation, and apoptosis. The ATPase …
