Volume 1 & 2 of the "Handbook of Metalloproteins", focuses on a number of metals, including iron, nickel, manganese, cobalt, copper and vanadium. Now volume 3 extends the wealth of knowledge to focus on proteins found in the redox-inactive ions of zinc and calcium. While there are more than two hundred known 3D structures of zinc enzymes, the handbook focuses on contributions for those enzymes most relevant in research today. Also covered ext...

Highlights the progress made in finding new and exciting metalloproteins 10 years after the original publication of the Handbook of Metalloproteins Volumes 1 & 2, and following publication of Volume 3 in 2004, comes the latest two volumes... Presents detailed descriptions of the most exciting newly discovered metalloproteins, including: * New metalloproteins involved in photosynthesis, e.g. photosystem I and II, cytochromes * New Copper Met...

The biological activation of dioxygen is a key reaction in biological systems. Enzymes involved in direct oxygen activation are oxidases and oxygenases. Multi-copper oxidases are an important class of oxidases reducing dioxygen in a four-electron reduction to water with concomitant one-electron oxidation of the reducing substrate. The progress in the characterization and understanding of the structure and function of these enzymes has advanced...
