2.A.5.4.11
The Zn2+ and Cd2+ uptake porter, ZipB (nonsaturable; electrogenic) (Lin et al. 2010). Water-mediated zinc transport through the ZipB channel sugests an essential role of solvated water molecules in driving zinc coordination dynamics and transmembrane crossing (Gupta et al. 2019). The 3D structure is known for a close ortholog (83% identity) from Bordetella bronchiseptica (Zhang et al. 2023).
