| the trans-Golgi network of all tissues except liver for the full length protein and in the endoplasmic reticulum for the spliced form |
|
localization between the trans-Golgi network and the plasma membrane that may be regulated by the accumulation of the adducts with ATOX1 ) |
| basic FUNCTION
| copper binding P-type ATPase 7A, involved in subcellular transport and copper efflux |
|
rapidly relocalized to the plasma membrane using a C teminal di-leucine endocytic signal in case of elevated copper levels |
|
incorporating the copper in cuproenzyme like cytochrome oxidase, dopamine B-hydroxylase, lysyl oxydase |
|
play a central role in distribution of copper in the central nervous system |
|
may be having an important role of transporter in motor-neuron maintenance and function  |
|
play a previously unrecognized role in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis  |
|
transport Cu across cellular membranes for biosynthetic and protective functions, enabling Cu to fulfill its role as a catalytic and structural cofactor for many essential enzymes, and to prevent a toxic build-up of Cu inside cells  |
