TLDR
The correlation between the geometries of small-molecule crystal structures and the metal-binding sites in metalloproteins was investigated and it follows that the octahedral arrangement is preferred by Co2+ and Ni2+, tetrahedral by Zn2+, square planar by Cu2+.About:

Metalloproteins and metal sensing
TL;DR: Almost half of all enzymes must associate with a particular metal to function, and for metalloproteins to acquire the right metals, metal sensors must correctly distinguish between the inorganic elements.

Protein-inorganic hybrid nanoflowers
TL;DR: A method is reported for creating hybrid organic-inorganic nanoflowers using copper (II) ions as the inorganic component and various proteins as the organic component to exhibit enhanced enzymatic activity and stability compared with the free enzyme.

Activation of estrogen receptor-alpha by the heavy metal cadmium.
TL;DR: The ability of cadmium to bind to and activate wild-type and various mutants of ER-alpha was examined, suggesting that the heavy metal interacts with the hormone-binding domain of the receptor.

Absolute hardness: companion parameter to absolute electronegativity
Robert G. Parr,Ralph G. Pearson +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a property called absolute hardness eta is defined for neutral and charged species, atomic and molecular, for both hard and soft acids and bases, by making use of the hypothesis that extra stability attends bonding of A to B when the ionization potentials of A and B in the molecule are the same.
