Manganese Binding Properties of Human Calprotectin under Conditions of High and Low Calcium: X-ray Crystallographic and Advanced Electron Paramagnetic Resonance Spectroscopic Analysis

The antimicrobial protein calprotectin (CP), a hetero-oligomer of the S100 family members S100A8 and S100A9, is the only identified mammalian Mn(II)-sequestering protein. Human CP uses Ca(II) ions to tune its Mn(II) affinity at a biologically unprecedented hexahistidine site that forms at the S100A8...
