Calculating metalation in cells reveals CobW acquires CoII for vitamin B12 biosynthesis while related proteins prefer ZnII
The connection between metal binding to proteins and availabilities of different metals in cells has been unclear. Here, the authors report a metalation-calculator that takes into account competition between metals and their variable accessibility, and thereby elucidate in vivo metal occupancies of...
