Apo (1fes) and copper (1fd8) forms
of the metallochaperone protein Atx1 from Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
These are averaged NMR structures.
What structural elements
are present in each molecule?
What is the subunit composition?
What is the coordination
geometry about each metal ion?
Are there other ligands that
may act to transfer metal ions?
How do these structures compare
with MerP and Menkes metalloproteins?
