Evaluation of metallothionein involvement in the modulation of mitochondrial respiration in mice / Marianne Pretorius.
Metallothioneins (MTs) are small, non-enzymatic proteins that are involved in cellular detoxification and metal homeostasis because of their high cysteine content. MTs have also been identified as one of the vast number of adaptive responses to mitochondrial respiratory chain (RC) deficiencies. Asid...
