Distinct pathways for zinc metabolism in the terrestrial slug Arion vulgaris
In most organisms, the concentration of free Zn(2+) is controlled by metallothioneins (MTs). In contrast, no significant proportions of Zn(2+) are bound to MTs in the slug, Arion vulgaris. Instead, this species possesses cytoplasmic low-molecular-weight Zn(2+) (LMW Zn) binding compound that divert t...
