Membrane potentials spectroscopic techniques

The biochemical mechanism that allows chromium to potentiate the actions of insulin receptors on cell membranes has been intensively investigated. It is now suggested that a low molecular weight intracellular octapeptide (LMWCr), also known as chromodulin, binds Cr and enhances the response of insulm receptors. Chromodufin binds four Cr ions and then locates on cell membranes near to the site of insulin receptors. The structure of chromodulin has been examined by a variety of advanced spectroscopic techniques and the complex shown to possess a unique type of multmuclear assembly, with the chromium centers having an octahedral coordination with oxygen-based ligands. ... [Pg.1124]
