This article features research by Daniel J. Kutscher, Alfredo Sanz-Medel and Jörg Bettmer from University of Oviedo, Spain investigating the potential binding partners of methylmercury in tuna fish muscle using mass spectroscopic techniques. Their study identifies skeletal muscle myosin as a potential target protein for methylmercury thus contributing to understanding biological pathways of this particular metal containing pollutant.
