Target Information
Metallothionein-1 (MT1) is a small, cysteine-rich protein primarily involved in metal ion homeostasis, particularly zinc and copper, and detoxification of heavy metals like cadmium and mercury. It plays a critical role in mitigating oxidative stress by scavenging free radicals, thereby protecting cellular components from damage. Additionally, MT1 is essential in organ development, such as the kidneys, where its expression is modulated by zinc levels, influencing tissue growth and function.
