Zinc binding proteins are a diverse group of proteins that play crucial roles in various biological processes by coordinating zinc ions. These proteins utilize zinc ions to stabilize their structures or to catalyze enzymatic reactions. Zinc, being a versatile transition metal, can interact with proteins in multiple coordination geometries, which allows it to participate in a wide range of biological functions. These functions include DNA and RNA synthesis, gene expression, apoptosis, and enzymatic catalysis involving hydrolysis and redox reactions. Zinc binding motifs, such as zinc fingers, zinc twists, and zinc clusters, are structural features that enable proteins to bind zinc ions. The involvement of zinc binding proteins in numerous biological pathways underscores their importance in maintaining cellular integrity, growth, development, and the immune response. Dysfunction or imbalances in zinc metabolism and zinc binding proteins can lead to various diseases, including neurodegenerative conditions, immune disorders, and cancers, highlighting the critical role of zinc in human health. CZIB (CXXC motif containing zinc binding protein) is a 160 amino acid protein that enables zinc ion binding activity.
