Ripping and stitching with copper

Research output: Contribution to journalComment/debatepeer-review

Abstract

BURP-domain proteins belong to an emerging class of autocatalytic copper-containing proteins that modify themselves after synthesis. Now, a report explains how their structure and metal coordination sphere control the installation of crosslinks within the core peptide, and shows how nature leverages mechanistic paradigms to create diversity.
