Multiple Evolutionary Origins of Ubiquitous Cu(2+) and Zn(2+) Binding in the S100 Protein Family

The S100 proteins are a large family of signaling proteins that play critical roles in biology and disease. Many S100 proteins bind Zn(2+), Cu(2+), and/or Mn(2+) as part of their biological functions; however, the evolutionary origins of binding remain obscure. One key question is whether divalent t...
