About this book

Metal-Sulfur clusters play an essential role in living organisms through the unique character of sulfur-metal bonding. The new volume in prestigious Metal Ions in Life Sciences explores different transition metal complexes with sulfur, their biosynthesis and biological functions in regulation of gene expression, catalysis of important metabolic reactions and protein structure arrangement.

Provides an understanding of the roles transition metals play in the chemistry of living systems
Links chemical properties of metal-sulfur clusters with their biological functions

Reviews

"Overall, the authors and editors have undoubtedly accomplished a remarkable achievement in producing such an excellent survey of many essential but otherwise highly diverse bioinorganic transition metal systems under the general heading of coordination to the unique bioelement sulfur." Wolfgang Kaim in: Journal of Inorganic Biochemistry 210/2020, 111153, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jinorgbio.2020.111153
