Research Abstract |
It has been established that plants possess SH-type metal-binding peptides which are related to the metal homeostasis and the metal tolerance. In this study we challenged to find novel type peptides which bind metals with histidine residues not with SH groups in plants. Consequently, we found His-type metal binding peptides from various plants. Here, we propose a new paradigm regarding His-rich metal binding peptides in plants.
