Metalloprotein
In
biochemistry
, a
metalloprotein
is a generic term for a
protein
that also contains a
metal
cofactor
. The metal may be an isolated
ion
or may be
coordinated
with an nonprotein
organic compound
, such as the
porphyrin
found in
hemoproteins
. In some cases, the metal is co-coordinated with a side chain of the protein and an inorganic nonmetallic ion. This kind of protein-metal-nonmetal structure is seen in
iron-sulfur clusters
.
