    Mol Cell Biol 26:5580-7. 2006
    ..Zinc may modulate highly specific, linker-mediated zinc finger interactions in MTF-1, thus affecting its zinc- and DNA-binding activities, resulting in translocation to the nucleus and binding to the MT-I gene promoter...

    Belinda M Potter
    Division of Cell Biology and Biophysics, School of Biological Sciences, University of Missouri Kansas City, Kansas City, Missouri 64110, USA
    J Biol Chem 280:28529-40. 2005
    ..These analyses further suggested that metal sensing by MTF-1 in eukaryotic cells involves multiple zinc fingers and occurs over a 100-fold or less range of accessible Zn(II) concentration...

    Methods Mol Biol 649:411-35. 2010
    ..NMR and calorimetric methods are described to measure relative and individual zinc ion affinities in multi-fingered proteins, which is an essential step in unraveling the zinc-sensing mechanism of MTF-1 and Zap1...
