Copper transporters are responsible for copper isotopic fractionation in eukaryotic cells
Copper isotopic composition is altered in cancerous compared to healthy tissues. However, the rationale for this difference is yet unknown. As a model of Cu isotopic fractionation, we monitored Cu uptake in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, whose Cu import is similar to human. Wild type cells are enriched in 63Cu relative to 65Cu. Likewise, 63Cu isotope enrichment in cells without high-affinity Cu tran...
متن کاملRole of copper transporters in copper homeostasis.
Copper is a redox active metal that is essential for biological function. Copper is potentially toxic; thus, its homeostasis is carefully regulated through a system of protein transporters. Copper is taken up across the lumen surface of the small intestinal microvilli as cuprous ion by Ctr1. Cupric ion may also be taken up, but those processes are less well understood. Within the cell, intestin...
متن کاملLaser Ablation ICP-MS: particle size-dependent isotopic fractionation of copper in laser-generated aerosols
Laser induced isotopic fractionation Previous studies of laser ablation (LA) MC-ICP-MS analysis of Cu metal and sulphides showed reduced Cu/Cu ratios compared to solution nebulisation MC-ICP-MS of the same samples [1]. The fractionation of about 30ε (parts per 10,000) was reproduced repeatedly and observed, to a smaller degree, for Ag and Sb also. This deviation, which was attributed largely to...
متن کاملAcquisition of dietary copper: a role for anion transporters in intestinal apical copper uptake.
Copper is an essential micronutrient in humans and is required for a wide range of physiological processes, including neurotransmitter biosynthesis, oxidative metabolism, protection against reactive oxygen species, and angiogenesis. The first step in the acquisition of dietary copper is absorption from the intestinal lumen. The major human high-affinity copper uptake protein, human copper trans...
متن کاملLustrous insights into cisplatin accumulation: copper transporters.
As a relatively polar molecule, CDDP is thought to use specific plasma membrane systems for passage into cells, although entry by passive diffusion is also likely to occur. Alterations in these plasma membrane systems have been considered to be important resistance factors because one of the most consistent features of CDDP-resistant cell lines is decreased intracellular drug levels (1). Wherea...
