Summary
cusC is in the cusCFBA Cu/Ag efflux operon regulated by Cu and Ag. [More information is available at EcoGene: EG14233]. CusC is an outer membrane factor involved in the detoxification of copper and silver ions in Escherichia coli as part of the CusCFBA copper/silver efflux system. [More information is available at EcoCyc: G6320].
