Biological function summary
COPT2 plays an important role in maintaining copper homeostasis within the body allowing proper cellular functions that require copper-dependent enzymes. COPT2 is not part of a protein complex but its significance lies in its singular ability to enhance cellular uptake of copper ions. Copper-dependent enzymes such as cytochrome c oxidase and superoxide dismutase rely on COPT2's function to maintain optimal activity within the cell.
Pathways
COPT2 is directly involved in the copper regulation pathway ensuring that cells receive sufficient copper ions for enzymatic activities. This pathway also interacts with metallothioneins which are proteins responsible for metal detoxification and storage. COPT2's function complements other copper transport proteins like ATP7A and ATP7B which help in exporting and distributing copper within the body.
