The Royal Society of Chemistry apologises for these errors and any consequent inconvenience to authors and readers. Reactions of cytotoxic platinum drugs with proteins are attracting growing attention for their relevant biological implications. We report here on the reactions of two cis-diphosphane platinum(II) dichlorides (namely cis-bis(trimethylphosphane) platinum(II) dichloride and cis-bis(triethylphosphane) platinum(II) dichloride) with horse heart cytochrome c (cyt c) monitored through advanced ESI MS methods coupled to enzymatic digestion. A remarkable selectivity in terms of adduct stoichiometry is highlighted and the specific metal binding sites are localised on the protein surface.
