High-Affinity Manganese Coordination by Human Calprotectin Is Calcium-Dependent and Requires the Histidine-Rich Site Formed at the Dimer Interface
Calprotectin (CP) is a transition metal-chelating antimicrobial protein of the calcium-binding S100 family that is produced and released by neutrophils. It inhibits the growth of various pathogenic microorganisms by sequestering the transition metal ions manganese and zinc. In this work, we investig...
