Abstract
Metalloproteins are essential to all domains of life. The structure of the metalloproteins, especially the metal ion's coordination geometry (CG), needs to be carefully studied, because it provides a strong bridge between metal-binding protein sequences and their functions. Our previous study has shown that new CGs can be classified in zinc metalloproteins via a less biased analysis, and these new CGs also demonstrated distinct functional propensity. Applying the methodology to all metalloproteins will greatly help us in better understanding metalloproteins' structure and their contribution to the protein functions.
