Abstract

Covering: up to 31st December 2006

The literature concerning metal ion binding to the plasma protein haemopexin is reviewed. A structural model for human haemopexin is proposed on the basis of homology modelling, and this model is used to identify binding sites for metal ions. These putative sites are discussed with reference to the available experimental evidence.
