Engineered Metal-Binding Proteins: Purification to Protein Folding

Proteins can use metal ions to bind substrates, to maintain structure, to effect catalysis and for allosteric control and regulation. It is demonstrated that metal recognition can be engineered into proteins for applications such as protein purification.
