Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** ATOX1 is a small, 56-kDa protein that belongs to the metallothionein family of proteins. It is a copper-dependent protein chaperone that facilitates the proper folding and transport of copper-containing proteins, including enzymes and transcription factors. ATOX1 is highly expressed in cells involved in oxidative stress and immune response, suggesting its critical role in maintaining cellular homeostasis and immune function. **Pathways and Functions:** ATOX1 is involved in several key pathways, including: 1. **Copper-dependent protein binding:** ATOX1 facilitates the binding of copper to specific protein targets, ensuring proper protein folding and function. 2. **Detoxification of reactive oxygen species (ROS):** ATOX1 helps to neutralize ROS by binding to copper, which is then used to catalyze the reduction of ROS. 3. **Immune system function:** ATOX1 is expressed in immune cells and plays a critical role in the regulation of immune responses, including the production of antimicrobial peptides and the activation of immune cells. 4. **Intracellular copper ion homeostasis:** ATOX1 helps to regulate the levels of copper ions within the cell, ensuring that copper is available for its biological functions. **Clinical Significance:** Dysregulation of ATOX1 has been implicated in various diseases, including: 1. **Copper metabolism disorders:** Mutations in the ATOX1 gene have been linked to copper metabolism disorders, such as Menkes disease and Wilson's disease. 2. **Immune system dysfunction:** ATOX1 has been shown to play a critical role in the regulation of immune responses, and dysregulation of ATOX1 has been linked to immune system dysfunction in various diseases, including autoimmune disorders and cancer. 3. **Oxidative stress:** ATOX1 helps to regulate oxidative stress, and dysregulation of ATOX1 has been linked to oxidative stress-related diseases, including neurodegenerative disorders and cancer. In conclusion, ATOX1 is a multifaceted protein that plays a critical role in maintaining cellular homeostasis and immune function. Its dysregulation has been implicated in various diseases, highlighting the importance of ATOX1 in human health and disease. Further research is needed to fully understand the mechanisms by which ATOX1 regulates cellular homeostasis and immune function, and to identify potential therapeutic targets for the treatment of diseases related to ATOX1 dysfunction.
