CCS, Copper chaperone for superoxide dismutase, Superoxide dismutase copper chaperone
Copper chaperone for superoxide dismutase specifically delivers Cu to copper/zinc superoxide dismutase and may activate copper/zinc superoxide dismutase through direct insertion of the Cu cofactor. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008],cofactor:Binds 1 zinc ion per subunit.,cofactor:Binds 2 copper ions per subunit.,function:Delivers copper to copper zinc superoxide dismutase (SOD1).,similarity:Contains 1 HMA domain.,similarity:In the C-terminal section, belongs to the Cu-Zn superoxide dismutase family.,subunit:Homodimer, and heterodimer with SOD1.,tissue specificity:Ubiquitous.,
