As inferred from the cytosolic reaction, copper chaperone of superoxide dismutase (Ccs) in the mitochondrial intermembrane space transfers a copper(I) atom to a Sod1 monomer that already contains a Zn atom. After initial heterodimerization between Sod1 and Ccs, the copper atom is transferred, intramolecular cysteine disulfide bonds are formed in Sod1, and Sod1 dimerizes.
