Copper has long been known as essential to living systems, in part
through its fundamental role in electron transport and respiration.
Over the years into the present, its involvement in an ever
increasing number of processes in all kinds of organisms has become
apparent, and new and exciting vistas of its roles in such areas as
the central nervous system, and in humoral functions, are appearing
on the horizon. Although the biochemistry of this element has not
been studied nearly as much as that of many others, a for midable
amount of work has been carried out. It has thus been a challenge
to produce a summary of what has been found that provides both
breadth and depth. My goal has been to try to be as comprehensive
as possible, within some limitations. I have tried to provide basic
information and basic data that should continue to be useful for a
long time. The goal has also been to interpret where we currently
stand in our knowledge of the structure, function, regulation, and
metabolism of Cu-dependent processes and sub stances, especially
proteins. Thus, I have tried to make this a source book for
historic as well as current information on all aspects of copper
bio chemistry, and a summary of our current knowledge of
copper-dependent proteins and processes. Most of the research on
copper has been carried out on vertebrates, especially mammals.
This has played a role in the organization of the book."
