Schematic representation of the E. hirae copper ATPase (cop) operon. Boxes indicate open reading frames of the cop operon, and letters represent the gene names: copA and copB encode P-type ATPases for uptake and extrusion of copper, respectively; copY and copX (shaded) encode regulator proteins sensing copper. The black box represents the promoter/operator region.
