Abstract excerpt
CP12 is a small chloroplastic protein involved in the Calvin cycle that was shown to bind copper, a metal ion that is involved in the transition of CP12 from a reduced to an oxidized state. In order to describe CP12's copper-binding properties, copper-IMAC experiments and site-directed mutagenesi...
