Interaction of metal salts with cytoskeletal motor protein systems.

TL;DR: The hypothesis that lead and mercury genotoxicity may result, at least in part, via disturbance of chromosome segregation via interaction with cytoskeletal proteins is supported.

Interaction of metal salts with cytoskeletal motor protein systems

TL;DR: In this article, the genotoxic effects of inorganic lead and mercury salts were studied using the MN assay and the CREST analysis in V79 Chinese hamster fibroblasts.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genotoxicity of inorganic mercury salts based on disturbed microtubule function.

TL;DR: The overall data are consistent with the concept that the chromosomal genotoxicity of inorganic mercury could be due to interaction of Hg2+ with the motor protein kinesin mediating cellular transport processes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genotoxicity of Inorganic Lead Salts and Disturbance of Microtubule Function

TL;DR: The processes reported here point to relevant interactions of lead with tubulin and kinesin at low dose levels, as well as a dose‐dependent effect of lead nitrate on microtubule motility.
Journal ArticleDOI

Disturbed microtubule function and induction of micronuclei by chelate complexes of mercury(II)

TL;DR: Mercury(II) has a much higher affinity to sulfhydryls of cytoskeletal proteins than to this type of complexing agents, which indicates that the suitability of EDTA and related compounds for remediation of environmental mercury contamination or for other detoxification purposes involving mercury has to be questioned.
