Graphical Abstract

Blei-Glanz: Ein Pb2+-bindendes Protein aus Ralstonia metallidurans stand Modell für eine hoch empfindliche Pb2+-Fluoreszenzsonde (PbR691, türkise Kreise im Schema). Dieses Fluoreszenzsystem bescheinigt dem Protein eine überraschend hohe Selektivität für Pb2+ gegenüber anderen Metallionen.
