Metabolite Identification
Common NameCopper
DescriptionCopper, also known as cu(ii) or copper (ii) ion, belongs to the class of inorganic compounds known as homogeneous transition metal compounds. These are inorganic compounds containing only metal atoms,with the largest atom being a transition metal atom. Copper exists as a solid, possibly soluble (in water), and possibly neutral molecule. Copper exists in all living species, ranging from bacteria to humans. In cattle, copper is involved in the metabolic pathway called the tyrosine metabolism pathway. Copper is a potentially toxic compound. Copper has been found to be associated with several diseases known as aceruloplasminemia, mental retardation, enteropathy, deafness, peripheral neuropathy, ichthyosis, and keratoderma, and alzheimer's disease; also copper has been linked to several inborn metabolic disorders including hyperzincaemia and hypercalprotectinaemia and menkes disease.
