Gene information for ATP7B (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID540
Official gene symbolATP7B
Full nameATPase, Cu++ transporting, beta polypeptide
Aliases,PWD,WC1,WD,WND,
Gene summaryThis gene is a member of the P-type cation transport ATPase family and encodes a protein with several membrane-spanning domains, an ATPase consensus sequence, a hinge domain, a phosphorylation site, and at least 2 putative copper-binding sites. This protein functions as a monomer, exporting copper out of the cells, such as the efflux of hepatic copper into the bile. Alternate transcriptional splice variants, encoding different isoforms with distinct cellular localizations, have been characterized. Mutations in this gene have been associated with Wilson disease (WD). [provided by RefSeq]
