Origins, distribution, and ecological significance of marine microbial copper ligands
Copper (Cu) is required by marine microbes for essential biological processes, including photosynthesis and nitrogen fixation, but can be toxic above a certain threshold. Copper bioavailability in seawater is regulated by complexation with dissolved organic ligands of unknown source and structure. C...
