Bioinorganic chemistry

Ramon Vilar

This chapter reviews the literature reported during 2008 in the field of bioinorganic chemistry. The chapter focuses on metalloproteins that contain d-block metals on their active site and highlights some relevant bio-mimetic models. The interactions of d-block metals with peptides and biological chelators are also presented.
