The polymorphism of core promoter region on metallothionein 2A-metal binding protein in Turkish population.

Molecular biology reports - 1 Jan 2010

Kayaalti Zeliha, Söylemezoğlu Tülin

Abstract excerpt

Metallothioneins are low molecular weight proteins composed of 61-68 amino acid residues, and are characterized by high cysteine content with lack of aromatic amino acids. Because of their rich thiol content, Metallothioneins have crucial biological functions including cell proliferation and apoptosis, homeostasis of essential metals, cellular free radical scavenging, and metal detoxification. In this study, we...
