Copper-release from yeast Cu(I)-metallothionein by nitric oxide (NO)

The reaction of yeast Cu-MT with nitric oxide (NO) was examined. A release of copper from the Cu(I)-thiolate clusters of the protein by this remarkably important reagent was observed in vitro. The characteristic spectroscopic signals of the Cu(I)-thiolate chromophores levelled off in the presence of...
