The process of binding or confining metal ions such that they are separated from other components of a biological system. The process of binding or confining calcium ions such that they are separated from other components of a biological system. The process of binding or confining toxic mercury ions or atoms such that they are separated from sensitive components of a biological system. The process of binding or confining zinc ions such that they are separated from other components of a biological system. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of a biological quality. A biological quality is a measurable attribute of an organism or part of an organism, such as size, mass, shape, color, etc. The process of binding or confining iron ions in an extracellular area such that they are separated from other components of a biological system. The process of binding or confining iron ions in an intracellular area such that they are separated from other components of a biological system. Any process by which a cell, substance or cellular entity, such as a protein complex or organelle, is maintained in a location and prevented from moving elsewhere. Any process by which a cell, a substance, or a cellular entity, such as a protein complex or organelle, is transported to, and/or maintained in a specific location.
