How Copper Traverses Cellular Membranes Through the Mammalian Copper

Abstract. The Copper transporter 1, Ctr1, is part of a major pathway for cellular copper (Cu) uptake in the intestinal epithelium, in hepatic and cardiac tissue, and likely in many other mammalian cells and tissues. Here we summarize what is currently known about how extracellular Cu travels across the plasma membrane to enter the cytoplasm for ...
