Activity and Trafficking of Copper-Transporting ATPases in Tumor Development and Defense against Platinum-Based Drugs [PDF]
Membrane trafficking pathways emanating from the Golgi regulate a wide range of cellular processes. One of these is the maintenance of copper (Cu) homeostasis operated by the Golgi-localized Cu-transporting ATPases ATP7A and ATP7B.

Biochemical basis of regulation of human copper-transporting ATPases [PDF]
Copper is essential for cell metabolism as a cofactor of key metabolic enzymes. The biosynthetic incorporation of copper into secreted and plasma membrane-bound proteins requires activity of the copper-transporting ATPases (Cu-ATPases) ATP7A and ATP7B.

Gene Expression Analysis of Three Putative Copper-Transporting ATPases in Copper-Tolerant Fibroporia radiculosa [PDF]
Copper tolerance of brown-rot basidiomycete decay fungi can lessen the efficacy of copper-containing wood preservatives for wood products in-service. The purpose of this study was to evaluate wood mass loss and differential expression of three genes that

Evolution of copper transporting ATPases in eukaryotic organisms. [PDF]
Copper is an essential nutrient for most life forms, however in excess it can be harmful. The ATP-driven copper pumps (Copper-ATPases) play critical role in living organisms by maintaining appropriate copper levels in cells and tissues. These evolutionary conserved polytopic membrane proteins are present in all phyla from simplest life forms (bacteria)

Structural basis of ion uptake in copper-transporting P1B-type ATPases
P1B-type ATPases export excess transition metals from cells. Here, the authors report a molecular structure of CopA, a coppertransporting P1B-ATPase from A. fulgidus, in an inward-facing E1 conformation.

IDEDNIK syndrome: a newly recognized rare genetic disorder caused by AP1S1 and AP1B1 mutations [PDF]
IDEDNIK syndrome (formerly MEDNIK syndrome, OMIM #609313) is a rare autosomal recessive neurocutaneous disorder characterized by dysregulated copper metabolism and multisystem involvement. The primary causative gene, AP1S1, encodes the σ1A subunit of the

Mammalian copper-transporting P-type ATPases, ATP7A and ATP7B: Emerging roles [PDF]
Copper (Cu) has a role in a diverse and increasing number of pathways, physiological and disease processes. These roles are testament to the fundamental importance of Cu in biology and the need to understand the mechanisms that regulate Cu homeostasis.

Human copper transporters ATP7B and ATP7A deliver copper to biosynthetic pathways and maintain copper homeostasis in the cell. These enzymes combine several challenges for structural biology because they are large low abundance membrane proteins with many highly mobile domains and long disordered loops.
