Abstract
Expression of two monkey metallothioneins in yeast leads to complementation of both known functions of the endogenous yeast copperthionein gene, namely copper detoxification and autoregulation of transcription. The metallothionein-like proteins of higher and lower eukaryotes are therefore functionally analogous despite their dissimilar primary sequences.Entities:
