Avian MRP126 Restricts Microbial Growth through Ca(II)-Dependent Zn(II) Sequestration
The calgranulins form a class of S100 proteins in higher vertebrates that innate-immune cells release in abundance at infection sites. These proteins function by binding transition metal ions to prevent microbial pathogens from obtaining those essential nutrients. Mammals express three distinct memb...
