Evolution of Cd(2+) and Cu(+) binding in Helix pomatia metallothioneins
Metallothioneins (MTs) are small proteins present in all kingdoms of life. Their high cysteine content enables them to bind metal ions, such as Zn(2+), Cd(2+), and Cu(+), providing means for detoxification and metal homeostasis. Three MT isoforms with distinct metal binding preferences are present i...
