General description
Copper-transporting ATPase 1 (ATP7A) is a P-type ATPase localized in the trans-Golgi network (TGN). It has an amino-terminal region with six metal binding motifs, eight transmembrane domains and several other residues or motifs generally present in heavy metal-transporting ATPases. The gene encoding this protein is localized on chromosome Xq13.3.
Immunogen
Copper-transporting ATPase 1 recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)
Application
All Prestige Antibodies Powered by Atlas Antibodies are developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project and as a result, are supported by the most extensive characterization in the industry.
The Human Protein Atlas project can be subdivided into three efforts: Human Tissue Atlas, Cancer Atlas, and Human Cell Atlas. The antibodies that have been generated in support of the Tissue and Cancer Atlas projects have been tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues and through the recent efforts of the Human Cell Atlas project, many have been characterized by immunofluorescence to map the human proteome not only at the tissue level but now at the subcellular level. These images and the collection of this vast data set can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. We also provide Prestige Antibodies® protocols and other useful information.

Biochem/physiol Actions
Copper-transporting ATPase 1 (ATP7A) is mainly involved in delivering copper to copper-requiring enzymes. At times when cells are exposed to excessive copper, it is rapidly relocalized from the trans-Golgi network (TGN) to the plasma membrane and takes care of copper efflux. Thus, its functions include the transport of copper to cuproenzymes and proteins in the secretory pathway as well as excretion of excess copper. It constantly cycles between the TGN and plasma membrane. Mutations in the gene encoding ATP7A have been linked to Menkes disease.
Features and Benefits
Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.
Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
- IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
- Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.

Menkes disease is an X-linked recessive copper deficiency disorder caused by mutations in the ATP7A ( MNK ) gene which encodes a copper transporting P-type ATPase (MNK). MNK is normally localized pre- dominantly in the trans -Golgi network (TGN); however

The homeostatic regulation of essential elements such as copper requires many proteins whose activities are often mediated and tightly coordinated through protein-protein interactions. This regulation ensures that cells receive enough copper without intracellular concentrations reaching toxic levels. To date, only
