design of a novel metal binding peptide by molecular dynamics simulation to sequester cu and zn ions
heavy metal toxicity has serious adverse effects on the environment. the metal sequestering characteristics of a novel metal binding peptide (glu-cys) 11 gly+linker+hexahistidine (ec 11 :his 6 ) was investigated to determine if it can absorb cu 2+ or zn 2+ cations. molecular dynamics simulations were carried out using a model of 6 cu 2+ or zn 2+ and other ions enclosed in a fully hydrated simul...
from flora of north west of iran, four contrasting species in term of frequency and coverage on heavy metal rich soils were selected to study physiological mechanisms for different tolerance of zn and cu toxicity in a hydroponic culture experiment. for study of zn toxicity, dactylis glomerata and secale monatum and for cu, cichorium intybus and astragalus echinops were selected. a clear differe...
Heavy metal pollutions of aquatic ecosystems have already raised many concerns on aquaticorganisms’health and survival especially on their sperm. The effects of a single metal on sperm may be totallydifferent from cocktail of several metals because of their interactions, so the effects of zinc, cadmium andcalcium on the trout and carp sperms and their competition have been examined by incubatio...
Background: Evaluation on the toxicity of two mainly contaminant heavy metals, cadmium (Cd) and lead (Pb) through the food chain was the aim of this study. Methods: A total number of 270 healthy common carp (4±1.14 g) in April, 2015 transported to the Khatam Alanbia University of Technology, Behbahan, Iran. Fishes were divided into three groups and transferred to the 20 L aquaria each...
Mycobacterium tuberculosis thrives within macrophages by residing in phagosomes and preventing them from maturing and fusing with lysosomes. A parallel transcriptional survey of intracellular mycobacteria and their host macrophages revealed signatures of heavy metal poisoning. In particular, mycobacterial genes encoding heavy metal efflux P-type ATPases CtpC, CtpG, and CtpV, and host cell metal...
Oxidative damage and antioxidant properties were studied in Mugil cephalus exposed to cadmium, copper, lead and zinc in chronic toxicity test as pollution biomarkers. The elevated thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBA-RS) levels observed under exposure to heavy metals, leading to the oxidative damage resulting in lipid peroxidation (LPX). Increased activities of antioxidants, catalase (C...
The experimental evidence obtained with laboratory animals which shows that the toxicities of lead, cadmium, and mercury can be increased by deficiencies of certain essential nutrients such as calcium, iron, zinc, and selenium is briefly reviewed. An idealized theoretical model which indicates the possible influence of multiple nutritional deficiencies on the toxicity of a heavy metal is presen...
Lead is a toxic heavy metal that can cause a range of health problems. In this context, the vascular system is a particular target of the deleterious effects of lead. Lead exerts its toxicity through substitution of other divalent cations such as calcium and zinc, resulting in disruption of homeostasis. Based on the evidence that lead up-regulates endoplasmic reticulum (ER) chaperone glucose-re...
The environmental risk of heavy metal pollution is pronounced in soils adjacent to large industrial complexes. It is important to investigate the functioning of soil microorganisms in ecosystems exposed to long-term contamination by heavy metals. We studied the potential effects of heavy metals on microbial biomass, activity, and community composition in soil near a copper smelter in China. The...
