Background Information
ATPase copper transporting alpha(ATP7A) is a type of transmembrane P-type ATPase for copper transport. ATP7A and ATP7B are homologous genes responsible for copper transport across cell membranes. ATP7A transports copper ions from the Golgi membrane to copper-dependent enzymes (such as dopamine β-hydroxylase) in the secretory pathway. When copper ion concentrations rise, ATP7A relocalizes from the Golgi apparatus to the plasma membrane, promoting copper efflux and thereby protecting cells from copper toxicity. Mutations in ATP7A are associated with Menkes disease (MNK)( PMID: 28389643, 30341172).
