The binding of zinc and copper ions to nerve growth factor is differentially affected by pH: implications for cerebral acidosis

It has recently been shown that transition metal cations Zn2+ and Cu2+ bind to histidine residues of nerve growth factor (NGF) and other neurotrophins (a family of proteins important for neuronal survival) leading to their inactivation. Experimental data and theoretical considerations indicate that...
