Abstract excerpt
Copper transport ATPases sustain important roles in homeostasis of heavy metals and delivery of copper to metalloenzymes. The copper transport ATPase from Thermotoga maritima (CopA) provides a useful system for mechanistic studies, due to its heterologous expression and stability. Its sequence comprises 726 amino acids, including the N-terminal metal binding domain (NMBD), three catalytic domains (A, N, and P),...
