Effect of Methylmercury Binding on the Peroxide-Reducing Potential of Cysteine and Selenocysteine

[Image: see text] Methylmercury (CH(3)Hg(+)) binding to catalytically fundamental cysteine and selenocysteine of peroxide-reducing enzymes has long been postulated as the origin of its toxicological activity. Only very recently, CH(3)Hg(+) binding to the selenocysteine of thioredoxin reductase has b...
