Metal Ions in Life Sciences

Metal Ions in Life Sciences

Metal Ions in Life Sciences is a series of books edited by Astrid, Helmut and Roland Sigel, now published by the Royal Society of Chemistry[1] which reflects the interdisciplinary nature of biological inorganic chemistry. Six volumes have been produced, a seventh volume is in the press and two more volumes are in preparation. Each volume contains between 12 and 18 articles by internationally recognized experts. The series follows on from the 44-volume series entitled "Metal Ions in Biological Systems".

Historical development

The journal Bioinorganic Chemistry was founded in 1970 to publish papers in the newly emerging discipline of studies of bioinorganic chemistry. This was concerned mostly, but not entirely, with the role of metal ions. "Metal Ions in Biological Systems" was begun three years later by Helmut Sigel and subsequently his wife Astrid, both at the University of Basel. The series was published by Marcel Dekker. Over a period of somewhat more than 30 years 44 volumes were published. Their son Roland Sigel, at the University of Zurich, was also involved in the last two volumes. In 2004 Dekker has been taken over by Taylor and Francis.[2]

The Sigels then launched a new series entitled "Metal Ions in Life Sciences". The first four volumes were published by John Wiley & Sons.[3] From 2009 the series is published by the Royal Society of Chemistry.

Contents

Each volume contains between 12 and 18 articles. For example, volume 5 covers the interrelations between metallothioneins, the homeostasis of essential metal ions, and heavy metal toxicology. The interdependency between metallothionein regulation and gene expression and the role of metallothioneins in metal-induced carcinogenesis is examined. It deals with metallothioneins in bacteria, yeast and fungi, plants, diptera, earthworms and nematodes, echinoderms, crustaceans, molluscs, and fish. The structure and function of mammalian metallothioneins is reviewed. The volume also contains chapters on thioredoxins, glutaredoxins, phytochelatins and related ligands in biology.
