General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function enzyme specifically transports Cu(I) , but Ctr1 peptides bind Cu(II) at an amino terminal high-affinity Cu(II), Ni(II) (ATCUN) site. Ascorbate-dependent reduction of the Cu(II)-high-affinity Cu(II), Ni(II) (ATCUN) site is possible by virtue of an adjacent bis-His motif. Changes in the sequence proximity of the high-affinity site and bis-His motif lead to significant differences in coordination structure and chemical behavior Homo sapiens
