Metal complexation by histidine-rich peptides confers protective roles against cadmium stress in Escherichia coli as revealed by proteomics analysis

The underlying mechanism and cellular responses of bacteria against toxic cadmium ions is still not fully understood. Herein, Escherichia coli TG1 expressing hexahistidine-green fluorescent protein (His6GFP) and cells expressing polyhistidine-fused to the outer membrane protein A (His-OmpA) were app...
