C628A HgX2 substrates with small ligands can rapidly access the redox-active cysteines in the absence of the C-terminal cysteines, but those with large ligands require the C-terminal cysteines for rapid access. The C-terminal cysteines play a critical role in removing the high-affinity ligands before Hg(II) reaches the redox-active cysteines Bacillus sp. (in: Bacteria)
