Yq. Zhou et al., STUDIES ON THE STRUCTURE OF METAL SERUM A LBUMIN(VIII) - A FLUORESCENCE EXAFS STUDY OF THE ZINC ION CENTERS OF ZN(II)-HSA AND ZN(II)-BSA COMPLEXES, Gaodeng xuexiao huaxue xuebao, 18(6), 1997, pp. 851-853
It has been proved that in the Zn(II)-HSA and Zn(II)-BSA complexes, th
e internuclear distance between Zn(II) and its nearest binding atoms i
s 0.201 nm and 0.203 nm, the coordinate number is about four, the coor
dinate atoms are probably nitrogen atoms, and the possibility of sulfu
r of cysteine binding to Zn(II) is basically excluded. The results are
consequently discussed.
