2.A.4.1.4
Zn2+ (Km=105 μM), Cd2+ (Km=90 μM):proton (Km=20 nM) antiport metal ion efflux permease, ZitB (Chao and Fu, 2004a); Zn2+ (Km=1.4 μM; Anton et al., 2004). It also takes up Ni2+ and Cu2+ (Rahman et al., 2008).

Bacteria

ZitB of E. coli (P75757)
2.A.4.1.5

Bacteria
ZitA of Mycobacterium smegmatis (A0QQH3)
2.A.4.2.1
Mitochondrial Co2+/Zn2+ uptake (into mitochondria) permease.  A single mutation (N45I) increases the specificity for Fe2+ and decreases it for Co2+ (Lin et al., 2008).

Yeast

Cotl of Saccharomyces cerevisiae
2.A.4.2.2
Vacuolar Zn2+, Cd2+ uptake (into vacuoles) permease (Zn2+/Cd2+:H+ antiporter). A single mutation (N44I) changes the specificity from Zn2+ to Fe2+ (Lin et al., 2008). Lin et al. (2009) have identified transmembrane residues that determine metal specificity.

Yeast

Zrclp (ZnrP) of Saccharomyces cerevisiae
2.A.4.2.3
Plasma membrane Zn2+ efflux permease
Animals
ZnT1 of Rattus norvegicus
2.A.4.2.4
Zn2+ exporter, CDF-1

Animals

CDF-1 of Caenorhabditis elegans (Q95QW4)
2.A.4.3.1

Vesicular Zn2+ uptake (into endosomal/lysosomal vesicles) permease, ZnT2. There are two isoforms due to alternative splicing, 35 kDa (plasma membrane localized) and 42 kDa (endosome/secretory compartment localized) (Lopez and Kelleher, 2009).

Animals

Animals
ZnT3 of Homo sapiens (Q99726)
2.A.4.3.3
Mammary epithelia/brain Zn2+ transporter ZnT4 (the cause of inherited zinc deficiency in the lethal milk (lm) syndrome of mice, due to a nonsense mutation at codon 297 (arg) in the ZnT4 gene) (Huang and Gitschier, 1997).
Animals

2.A.4.3.4
Plant root and leaf vacuolar Zn2+ transporter, ZAT-1 or MTP1 (metal tolerance protein 1) (Desbrosses-Fonrouge et al., 2005). Loss of the histidine-rich loop stimulates transport activity (Kawachi et al., 2008)
Plants
MTP1 of Arabidopsis thaliana
(Q9ZT63)
2.A.4.4.1
Heteromeric nuclear/ER Zn2+ uptake permease, Msc2/Zrg17 (Ellis et al., 2005)

2.A.4.4.3
Golgi/secretory granule Zn2+ uptake (into Golgi or granules) permease, ZnT5 (ZnT5 forms heterooligomers with ZnT6) (Ellis et al., 2005; Ishihara et al., 2006) (Variant B catalyzes bidirectional transport (Valentine et al., 2007) )

2.A.4.7.1
Zn2+/Cd2+/Hg2+/Fe2+:H+ antiporter, YiiP or FieF (Chao and Fu, 2004b; Grass et al., 2005; Wei et al., 2004; Wei and Fu, 2006). The structure (3.8 Å resolution) reveals a homodimer interconnected at the cytoplasmic domain through four Zn2+ ions. A 6 TMS bundle features of a tetrahedral Zn2+ binding site (Lu and Fu, 2007).
