| Abstract
|
:
|
Copper has long been known as essential to living systems, in part through its fundamental role in electron transport and respiration. Thus, I have tried to make this a source book for historic as well as current information on all aspects of copper bio- chemistry, and a summary of our current knowledge of copper-dependent proteins and processes.
