OX NCBI_TaxID=27602; RN [1] RP NUCLEOTIDE SEQUENCE [MRNA]. RC TISSUE=Liver; RA Kaysen J., O'Hara T., Goodwin T., Linnehan R., Hammond T.; RL Submitted (AUG-1997) to the EMBL/GenBank/DDBJ databases. CC -!- FUNCTION: Metallothioneins have a high content of cysteine residues CC that bind various heavy metals. {ECO:0000250}. CC -!- SUBUNIT: Monomer. {ECO:0000250}. CC -!- DOMAIN: Class I metallothioneins contain 2 metal-binding domains: four CC divalent ions are chelated within cluster A of the alpha domain and are CC coordinated via cysteinyl thiolate bridges to 11 cysteine ligands. CC Cluster B, the corresponding region within the beta domain, can ligate CC three divalent ions to 9 cysteines. CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the metallothionein superfamily. Type 1 family. CC {ECO:0000305}.
