2.A.5.3.2
Zn2+ uptake transporter, Zip1 (abundantly expressed; involved in zinc homeostasis rather than acquisition of dietary Zn2+) (Gaither and Eide, 2000).  Mouse Zip1, 2 and 3 play important noncompensatory roles under conditions of zinc deficiency (Kambe et al. 2008).

Accession Number:Q9NY26

Molecular Weight:34250.00
Species:Homo sapiens (Human) [9606]
Number of TMSs:8
Location1 / Topology2 / Orientation3: Cell membrane1 / Multi-pass membrane protein2
Substrate zinc(2+)
