Copper-transfer mechanism from the human chaperone Atox1 to a metal-binding domain of wilson disease protein
The molecular details of how copper (Cu) is transferred from the human Cu chaperone Atox1 to metalbinding domains (MBDs) of P1B-type ATPases are still unclear. Here, we use a computational approach, employing quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics (QM/MM) methods, to shed light on the reaction mechan...
