Abstract: Menkes disease (MD) is caused by mutations in ATP7A, encoding a copper-transporting P-type ATPase which exhibits copper-dependent trafficking. ATP7A is found in the Trans-Golgi Network (TGN) at low copper concentrations, and in the post-Golgi compartments… read more here.

Abstract: Copper (Cu) is an essential cofactor for various enzymatic activities including mitochondrial electron transport, iron mobilization, and peptide hormone maturation. Consequently, Cu dysregulation is associated with fatal neonatal disease, liver and cardiac dysfunction, and anemia.… read more here.

Abstract: Chemotherapy resistance represents a formidable obstacle in advanced or metastatic colorectal cancer (CRC) patients. It is reported that ATPase copper transporting alpha (ATP7A) plays an important role in chemotherapy resistance in CRC. Here, we identified… read more here.
