Interaction of copper-metallothionein from the American lobster, Homarus americanus, with glutathione

Organisms have harnessed the unique chemistry of copper for a variety of purposes. However, that same chemistry makes this essential metal toxic at elevated concentrations. Metallothioneins (MTs), a family of small metal-binding proteins, are thought to play a crucial role in the regulation of this...
