Abstract: High-affinity copper transporter 1 (CTR1) is a key link in the transfer of copper (Cu) from the extracellular environment to the cell. Violation in the control system of its expression, or mutations in this gene, cause a global copper imbalance. However, the mechanism of copper transfer via CTR1 remains unclear. It has been shown that transformed bacteria synthesizing the fused GB1–NdCTR become resistant to toxic silver ions. According to UV–Vis spectrophotometry and isothermal titration calorimetry, electrophoretically pure GB1–NdCTR specifically and reversibly binds copper and silver ions, and binding is associated with aggregation. Purified NdCTR1 forms SDS-resistant oligomers. The link between nontrivial properties of NdCTR1 and copper import mechanism from extracellular space, as well as potential chelating properties of NdCTR1, are discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
