Lanthanides as probes for calcium in biological systems
Tóm tắt
Calcium ion plays an essential role in many biological processes. The environment about Ca2+may be probed by substitution of tripositive lanthanide ions, Ln3+. Ca2+proteins fall into two broad classes: those that are inhibited by Ln3+substitution and those that are not. It is suggested that although Ca2+undertakes a primarily structural role in the Ln3+non-inhibited proteins, Ca2+may be near the active site or participate in the mechanism of action of Ln3+inhibited proteins. Ca2+and Ln3+radii are similar; most Ln3+are slightly larger than Ca2+in complexes of the same coordination number, and substitution of Ln3+for Ca2+is accommodated by a slight decrease in bond distance or by an increase in coordination number. Luminescence from Tb3+has been demonstrated to be a sensitive environmental probe of Ca2+binding sites in proteins.
