ATP7B Antibody, 100 ug

ATPase, Cu++ transporting, beta polypeptide (Wilson disease) protein, also called ATP7B, is an ATPase that transports copper. This gene is a member of the P-type cation transport ATPase family and encodes a protein with several membrane-spanning domains, an ATPase consensus sequence, a hinge domain, a phosphorylation site, and at least two putative copper-binding sites. ATP7B is mapped to 13q14.3. This protein functions as a monomer, exporting copper out of the cells. When copper levels are in excess, ATP7B redistributes to a vesicular compartment near the biliary canalicular membranes for elimination of excess copper into bile, and it is transported along liver cell microtubules via interaction with the p62 dynactin subunit.
