Phytochelatins as a Dynamic System for Cd(II) Buffering from the Micro- to Femtomolar Range
[Image: see text] Phytochelatins (PCs) are short Cys-rich peptides with repeating γ-Glu-Cys motifs found in plants, algae, certain fungi, and worms. Their biosynthesis has been found to be induced by heavy metals—both biogenic and toxic. Among all metal inducers, Cd(II) has been the most explored fr...
