Structural Differences Between Pb(2+)- and Ca(2+)-binding Sites in Proteins: Implications with Respect to Toxicity

Pb(2+) is known to displace physiologically-relevant metal ions in proteins. To investigate potential relationships between Pb(2+)/protein complexes and toxicity, data from the Protein Data Bank were analyzed to compare structural properties of Pb(2+)- and Ca(2+)-binding sites. Results of this analy...
