Metal complexes in cells: from design of catalytic antioxidants to imaging metal ions and designing metal-based probes in X-ray fluorescence and IR-imaging, a multidisciplinary col... by Policar, Clotilde, Delsuc, Nicolas, Bertrand, Hélène Charlotte

“…Starting from the description of the main features of an antioxidant cell-protecting metalloenzyme, the superoxide dismutase (SOD), we will delineate the main parameters to be controlled to design low-molecular weight (LMW) metal complexes meant to mimic its activity: choice of the metal cation, tuning of the redox potential, and modulation of the charge. The effect of the hydration level and inertness with regard to metal ion release have also been explored. …”
