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

“…This journey will take us from chemical design of inorganic metal complexes with a biological activity (catalytic antioxidants) or a biological interest (metal-based probes) and their characterization out of cellular context, typical of bioinorganic chemistry, to their studies in cells, typical of chemical biology.First, we will focus on the description of a bio-inspired strategy to design metal-based catalytic antioxidants. 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. …”
