Abstract excerpt
Copper amine oxidases (CAOs) are found in almost every living kingdom. Although Saccharomyces cerevisiae is one of the few yeast species that lacks an endogenous CAO, heterologous gene expression of CAOs from other organisms produces a functional enzyme. To begin to characterize their function and mechanisms of copper acquisition, two putative cao(+) genes from Schizosaccharomyces pombe were expressed in S....
