Metal Ions and Degenerative Diseases
The involvement of metal-binding proteins in degenerative diseases has sparked active research by bioinorganic chemists to elucidate the nature of these metal–protein interactions, to understand the impact of metal binding in the folding of the protein and its ability to form oligomeric species and aggregates, and to study the redox properties of the metal–protein complexes and their impact in oxidative stress. In this issue, we have gathered a collection of mini-reviews, commentaries, and papers that summarize and illustrate the most recent advances in the biological inorganic chemistry research of neurodegenerative diseases.
