title: The ABCDs of periplasmic copper trafficking.
abstract: The structure of the CopC protein of Pseudomonas syringae pathovar tomato provides fascinating clues, not only to its role in the periplasmic space in copper resistance, but also to features important for copper trafficking and homeostasis that may be conserved in a variety of biological systems.
