Function |
May mediate cellular uptake of nontransferrin-bound iron (By similarity). Broad-scope metal ion transporter with a preference for zinc uptake. {ECO:0000250, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15642354}.
|
Subcellular Location |
Cell membrane {ECO:0000305}; Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000305}. Cell projection, lamellipodium {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12659941, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15642354}. Note=Localized to the plasma membrane and also found colocalized with F-actin concentrated on lamellipodiae.
|
Tissue Specificity |
Ubiquitously expressed, with increased expression in liver, pancreas, fetal liver, thyroid gland, left and right ventricle, right atrium and fetal heart. Weakly expressed in spleen, thymus, and peripheral blood leukocytes. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15642354, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7584044}.
