Molecular insights into the role of selenoenzymes in the toxicity of methylmercury
This combined experimental and computational approach provides a comprehensive mechanistic understanding of how selenoproteins modulate methylmercury toxicity through its preferential reactivity towards SeCys,leading to S–Hg–S(e) bridge formation.
