Abstract excerpt
Recent studies in Saccharomyces cerevisiae suggest that the delivery of copper to Cu/Zn superoxide dismutase (SOD1) is mediated by a cytosolic protein termed the copper chaperone for superoxide dismutase (CCS). To determine the role of CCS in mammalian copper homeostasis, we generated mice with t...
