Namecopper homeostasis system CopRS/CopABCD
TypeSYSTEM
DescriptionThis property describes a copper resistance (or copper homeostasis) system. The CopA/CopB pair has been shown in Xanthomonas axonopodis pathovar citri to be necessary for copper resistance. The CopC/CopD pair, occasionally found fused, has been implicated in copper resistance in some species, copper uptake in others. These two pairs commonly occur independently but occasionally occur together. CopS and CopR are copper-sensing histidine kinase and DNA-binding response regulator.
JCVI RoleAdaptations to atypical conditions
