General annotation (Comments)

Function

Ceruloplasmin is a blue, copper-binding (6-7 atoms per molecule) glycoprotein. It has ferroxidase activity oxidizing Fe2+ to Fe3+ without releasing radical oxygen species. It is involved in iron transport across the cell membrane.

Catalytic activity

4 Fe2+ + 4 H+ + O2 = 4 Fe3+ + 2 H2O.

Cofactor

Binds 6 copper ions per monomer.

Subcellular location

Secreted.

Tissue specificity

Expressed by the liver and secreted in plasma.

Involvement in disease

Defects in CP are the cause of aceruloplasminemia (ACERULOP) [MIM:604290]. It is an autosomal recessive disorder of iron metabolism characterized by iron accumulation in the brain as well as visceral organs. Clinical features consist of the triad of retinal degeneration, diabetes mellitus and neurological disturbances.

Ceruloplasmin levels are decreased in Wilson disease, in which copper cannot be incorporated into ceruloplasmin in liver because of defects in the copper-transporting ATPase 2.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the multicopper oxidase family.

Contains 3 F5/8 type A domains.

Contains 6 plastocyanin-like domains.
