Introduction of α-hydroxymethylserine residues in a peptide sequence results in the strongest peptidic, albumin-like, copper(II) chelator known to date

Abstract

A tripetide amide HmS-HmS-His-NH₂ is the strongest peptidic Cu_II chelator known to date, due to the steric shielding of the chelate plane as well as electronic effects.
