High impact information on hcp_1

  • Assuming a similar processing for halocyanin, Cys at position 25 of the primary transcript would be modified by a diphytanyl (glycerol)diether [1].
  • In analogy, one can deduce that halocyanin may adopt a type I copper binding site with two His, one Met, and one Cys as probable ligands [2].
