🧬 A Protein That Makes Copper Break the Rules What if a protein could make a metal behave differently? A research team led by Prof. Woon Ju Song engineered protein scaffolds that reshape copper's coordination environment, stabilizing rare molecular structures that are normally difficult to form. The approach could expand the design possibilities for artificial metalloproteins and metal-based catalysts.   Published in Journal of the American Chemical Society (JACS): https://lnkd.in/gxWt4nyg   #SNUResearch #JACS #ProteinEngineering #Metalloproteins #Chemistry #ChemicalBiology
