Role of Zn <sup>2+</sup> Ions in Host-Virus Interactions

12 Sept 2008

Abstract excerpt

The involvement of Zn2+ ions in the structure of ubiquitous protein zinc fingers gives this metal a particular position in the biology of the cell. Zinc has long been known as a trace element crucial for the proper folding and functioning of numerous proteins in the cell, including enzymes, signal transduction proteins, and transcription factors. However, deeper insights into the exact mechanistic role of zinc in...
