Structure, Polymorphisms and Electrochemistry of Mammalian Metallothioneins – A Review
Mammalian metallothioneins (MTs) are cysteine-rich low-molecular mass proteins with numerous functions including toxic metal detoxification, as a metal chaperone and maintenance of metal ion homeostasis. Four major isoforms (MT-1 through MT-4) have been identified in mammals. In this review, the fun...
