<p>The present invention relates to the alpha and beta domains of metallothionein and analogs thereof, their synthesis, and methods for controlling in vitro and industrial enzymatic reactions using them. Purified metal-free and metal-containing alpha and beta domains of metallothionein and analogs thereof are provided as described below. A high yield method of synthesis and purification is also provided for the metal-free and metal containing alpha and beta domains of metallothionein and analogs thereof. Finally, methods for controlling in vitro and industrial enzymatic reactions are provided wherein the enzymatic processes are controlled by transfer or removal of a metal cation, to or from an enzyme metal-inhibitory site using the alpha and beta domains of metallothionein and analogs thereof.</p> |
