Function |
Zinc transporter, that transports Zn(2+) from the endoplasmic reticulum/Golgi apparatus to the cytosol. Transport is stimulated by growth factors, such as EGF, and Ca(2+), as well as by exogenous Zn(2+). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:14525538, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15705588, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22317921}.
|
Subcellular Location |
Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Golgi apparatus, cis-Golgi network membrane.
|
Tissue Specificity |
Widely expressed. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:14525538, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15705588}.
