Recombinant Human SLC31A1 Protein，His

SLC31A1, also known as the high-affinity copper transporter 1 (hCTR1), plays a crucial role in copper homeostasis and cellular uptake of copper ions, which are essential for various biological processes including enzyme function and oxidative stress response. Research into SLC31A1 has gained momentum due to its significant implications in human health and disease. Deficiencies or dysfunctions in this transporter are linked to disorders such as Menkes disease, characterized by copper deficiency, and Wilson's disease, which leads to copper accumulation and toxicity. Additionally, SLC31A1 has garnered attention in the context of cancer, as copper is known to influence tumor progression and angiogenesis. The recombinant expression of SLC31A1 has been pursued to elucidate its mechanistic role and to develop potential therapeutic strategies. By producing the protein in various expression systems, researchers aim to study its structural properties, transport kinetics, and interaction with other cellular components. Understanding the function and regulation of SLC31A1 may provide insights into novel treatment approaches for copper-related disorders and enhance our knowledge of cellular metal ion transport mechanisms. Thus, the investigation of SLC31A1 as a recombinant protein is a vital area of research with broad implications for both basic biology and clinical applications.
