Evolution of bioinorganic motifs in P450-containing systems.
The choice of bioinorganic motifs by Nature results in a spectacular variety of active-site structures even within the same protein family. Here, we use the concept of the bioinorganic motif to discuss the function and evolution of P450-containing and other related systems. Apart from P450, these systems include a FAD flavoprotein or domain, a FMN domain, ferredoxins and cytochrome b(5). Analys...

متن کاملGamma Radiation-Induced Damage in the Zinc Finger of the Transcription Factor IIIA
A zinc finger motif is an element of proteins that can specifically recognize and bind to DNA. Because they contain multiple cysteine residues, zinc finger motifs possess redox properties. Ionizing radiation generates a variety of free radicals in organisms. Zinc finger motifs, therefore, may be a target of ionizing radiation. The effect of gamma radiation on the zinc finger motifs in transcrip...
متن کاملStructural and catalytic roles of metal ions in RNA.
The discovery of ribozymes nearly 30 years ago triggered a huge interest in the chemistry and biology of RNAs. Much of the recently made progress focusing on metal ions is addressed in MILS 9. This book, written by 28 internationally recognized experts from 8 nations, provides a most up-to-date view and is thus of special relevance for colleagues teaching courses in biological inorganic chemist...
