NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a transmembrane protein that functions in copper transport across membranes. This protein is localized to the trans Golgi network, where it is predicted to supply copper to copper-dependent enzymes in the secretory pathway. It relocalizes to the plasma membrane under conditions of elevated extracellular copper, and functions in the efflux of copper from cells. Mutations in this gene are associated with Menkes disease, X-linked distal spinal muscular atrophy, and occipital horn syndrome. Alternatively-spliced transcript variants have been observed.

Uniprot Description
ATP7A: a multi-pass membrane protein and cation transporting ATPase. A copper-transporter that may supply copper to copper-requiring proteins within the secretory pathway when localized in the trans-Golgi network. Cycles between the trans-Golgi network (TGN) and the plasma membrane. Predominantly found in the TGN and relocalizes to the plasma membrane in response to elevated extracellular copper levels where it functions in the efflux of copper from cells. Defects in ATP7A are the cause of Menkes syndrome (MD) and occipital horn syndrome (OHS). Six alternatively spliced isoforms have been described. The longest isoform has 6 transmembrane regions. Isoform 3, lacking all 6 transmembrane regions and 5 heavy-metal-associated (HMA) domains, is probably cytosolic. Isoform 6 lacks all transmembrane regions and 5 heavy-metal-associated (HMA) domains, but has a putative nuclear localization signal attached at the N-terminus.

Product Notes
The ATP7A atp7a (Catalog #AAA3224740) is an Assay Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "ATP7A, Assay Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
