Rolling in the Deep Chem Parody

So my and my group for this one chem (metals in biology)  class  came up with this parody for rolling in the deep. The topic we're talking about is a protein that binds to nickels, which is in E.coli, which is in urinary tract infections. Anywho, I will post the actual video soon, once we have it done that is!! But heres the lyrics so far:

There’s a protein in the depths of E. Coli,

Reaching a maximum of six binding sites,

Finally I can see you, Nik R,

Go ahead and bind to nickel and I’ll redox there,

See how I’ll leave with every nickel in sight,

Don’t underestimate the infections that I’ll give you,

There’s fire starting in my bladder,

Caused by the presence of many E. Coli,

The bonds of nickel, they keep me conformed,

They keep me in the shape of homo-tetrameric,

The bonds of nickel, prefer square planar,

I can’t help feeling,

I bind to Histidine,

And also cysteine,

But I had you at square planar,

And you chelated to your needs

Baby, you bind without free oxygen,

And help with hydrogenase activation

Hydrogenase helps reduction catalyze

And makes sure E. coli stays alive

The bonds of nickel, they keep me conformed,

They keep me in the shape of homo-tetrameric,

The bonds of nickel, prefer square planar,

I can’t help feeling,

I bind to Histidine,

And also cysteine,

But I had you at square planar,

And you chelated to your needs

Count your nickels to see if you’re satisfied

If you have more than six, you wont stay alive

Help my homodimers find to DNA

To stop transcription for Nickel uptake
