CCS1 [YMR038C]
Copper chaperone for superoxide dismutase Sod1p; involved in oxidative stress protection; Met-X-Cys-X2-Cys motif within N-terminus is involved in insertion of copper into Sod1p under conditions of copper deprivation; required for regulation of yeast copper genes in response to DNA-damaging agents; protein abundance increases in response to DNA replication stress; human homolog CCS can complement yeast ccs1 null mutant; Belongs to the CCS1 family.
Synonyms: CCS1, CCS1p, P40202, LYS7, P40202p ...
