Abstract
The copK gene is localized on the pMOL30 plasmid of Cupriavidus metallidurans
CH34 within the complex cop cluster of genes, for which 21 genes
have been identified. The expression of the corresponding periplasmic CopK
protein is strongly upregulated in the presence of copper, leading to a high
periplasmic accumulation. The structure and metal-binding properties of
CopK were investigated by NMR and mass spectrometry.
