What is Metal Sites in Proteins and Models Volume 88 about?

<p>Biological chemistry is a major frontier of inorganic chemistry. Three special volumes devoted to <b>Metal Sites in</b> <b>Proteins</b> <b>and</b> <b>Models</b> address the questions: how unusual ("entatic") are metal sites in metalloproteins and metalloenzymes compared to those in small coordination complexes? And if they are special, how do polypeptide chains and co-factors control this? The chapters deal with iron, with metal centres acting as Lewis acids, metals in phosphate enzymes, with vanadium, and with the wide variety of transition metal ions which act as redox centres. They illustrate in particular how the combined armoury of genetics and structure determination at the molecular level are providing unprecedented new tools for molecular engineering.</p> <p>Metal centers of bacterioferritins of non-heam-iron containing cytochromes b, protein engineering of cytochrome. </p>
