The HD-Domain Metalloprotein Superfamily: An Apparent Common Protein Scaffold with Diverse Chemistries

open access: yesCatalysts, 2020
The histidine–aspartate (HD)-domain protein superfamily contains metalloproteins that share common structural features but catalyze vastly different reactions ranging from oxygenation to hydrolysis.

Structural Determination of a Filamentous Chaperone to Fabricate Electronically Conductive Metalloprotein Nanowires.

open access: yesACS Nano, 2020
The transfer of electrons through protein complexes is central to cellular respiration. Exploiting proteins for charge transfer in a controllable fashion has the potential to revolutionize the integration of biological systems and electronic devices ...

Profiling the iron, copper and zinc content in primary neuron and astrocyte cultures by rapid online quantitative size exclusion chromatography-inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Metals often determine the chemical reactivity of the proteins to which they are bound. Each cell in the body tightly maintains a unique metalloproteomic profile, mostly dependent on function.

Decorin Is a Zn2+ Metalloprotein [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1999
Decorin is ubiquitously distributed in the extracellular matrix of mammals and a member of the proteoglycan family characterized by a core protein dominated by leucine-rich repeat motifs. We show here that decorin extracted from bovine tissues under denaturing conditions or produced in recombinant "native" form by cultured mammalian cells has a high ...

Zinc Gluconate in the Treatment of Dysgeusia—a Randomized Clinical Trial [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
In the treatment of dysgeusia, the use of zinc has been frequently tried, with equivocal results. The aim of the present randomized clinical trial, which involved a sufficiently large sample, was therefore to determine the efficacy of zinc treatment ...

Functional analysis of the citrate activator CitO from Enterococcus faecalis implicates a divalent metal in ligand binding

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2016
The regulator of citrate metabolism, CitO, from Enterococcus faecalis belongs to the FCD family within the GntR superfamily. In the presence of citrate, CitO binds to cis-acting sequences located upstream of the cit promoters inducing the expression of ...

Pyrone-based inhibitors of metalloproteinase types 2 and 3 may work as conformation-selective inhibitors. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Matrix metalloproteinases are zinc-containing enzymes capable of degrading all components of the extracellular matrix. Owing to their role in human disease, matrix metalloproteinase have been the subject of extensive study.

Finding High-Quality Metal Ion-Centric Regions Across the Worldwide Protein Data Bank

open access: yesMolecules, 2019
As the number of macromolecular structures in the worldwide Protein Data Bank (wwPDB) continues to grow rapidly, more attention is being paid to the quality of its data, especially for use in aggregated structural and dynamics analyses. In this study, we

RPL6: A Key Molecule Regulating Zinc- and Magnesium-Bound Metalloproteins of Parkinson’s Disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2021
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease with no definite molecular markers for diagnosis. Metal exposure may alter cellular proteins that contribute to PD.

Correlation of Matrix Metalloproteinases and Tissue Inhibitors of Matrix Metalloproteinase Expression in Ileal Carcinoids, Lymph Nodes and Liver Metastasis with Prognosis and Survival [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Purpose: Ileal carcinoids are gut epithelial tumors originating from serotonin-containing enterochromaffin (EC) cells. Therapeutic options for effectively inhibiting the growth and spread of metastatic carcinoids are still limited.
