Article Synopsis
- The primary and secondary coordination spheres in biological metal sites, particularly in copper proteins, significantly affect their properties.
- A thorough bioinformatics study revealed that methionine interactions with phenylalanine, tyrosine, and tryptophan are common in the second sphere.
- Experimental variations in azurin proteins showed that altering these second-sphere interactions led to subtle changes in copper properties, emphasizing their importance while retaining key characteristics of the azurin site.
