Description
Product Characteristics:
Promotes ubiquitination of NF-kappa-B subunit RELA and its subsequent proteasomal degradation. Down-regulates NF-kappa-B activity. Down-regulates SOD1 activity by interfering with its homodimerization. Plays a role in copper ion homeostasis. Can bind one copper ion per monomer. May function to facilitate biliary copper excretion within hepatocytes.Tissue specificity:Ubiquitous. Highest expression in the liver, with lower expression in brain, lung, placenta, pancreas, small intestine, heart, skeletal muscle, kidney and placenta.
Subcellular location: Cytoplasm, Nucleus
Synonyms: C2orf5, COMD1, COMD1_HUMAN, COMM domain-containing protein 1, COMMD1, copper metabolism domain containing 1, MGC27155, MURR1, Protein Murr1.
Target Information: COMMD1 is a regulator of copper homeostasis, sodium uptake, and NF-kappa-B (see MIM 164011) signaling (de Bie et al., 2005 [PubMed 16267171]).[supplied by OMIM, Sep 2009]
