CCS (gene)

Copper chaperone for superoxide dismutase is a is_associated_with::metalloprotein that in humans is encoded by the CCS is_associated_with::gene.

Function
Copper chaperone for superoxide dismutase specifically delivers Cu to copper/zinc superoxide dismutase and may activate copper/zinc superoxide dismutase through direct insertion of the Cu cofactor.

Interactions
CCS (gene) has been shown to interact with is_associated_with::SOD1 and is_associated_with::APBA1.
