In an effort to understand the recombination of a B2 metallo-beta-lactamase (M beta L), the binding of metals to apo-ImiS was studied by isothermal titration calorimetry and fluorescence spectra. The binding of Zn(II), Co(II) to apo-ImiS resulted in activation free energies triangle G(not equal)(theta) values of 93.719 and 92.948 kJ mol(-1), respectively, and increasing of fluorescence intensity at maxima emission of 340 nm.
