Responsiveness of metallothionein and hemocyanin genes to cadmium and copper exposure in the garden snail Cornu aspersum

Terrestrial gastropods express metal‐selective metallothioneins (MTs) by which they handle metal ions such as Zn(2+), Cd(2+), and Cu(+)/Cu(2+) through separate metabolic pathways. At the same time, they depend on the availability of sufficient amounts of Cu as an essential constituent of their respi...
