Isolation and characterization of metal-binding proteins (metallothioneins) from lobster digestive gland ( Homarus americanus)

Two metallothionein (low-molecular-weight, metal-binding proteins) preparations, MT-1 and MT-2, have been isolated from the digestive gland of American lobster ( Homarus americanus) contaminated with Cd. MT-1 contains Cd- and Cu-binding proteins, whereas MT-2 is a reasonably pure Cd-binding protein....
