S39A1_HUMAN (UniProt)

Gene names: SLC39A1, IRT1, ZIP1, ZIRTL, CGI-08, CGI-71
Protein names and data: S39A1_HUMAN, Full=Zinc transporter ZIP1, Full=Solute carrier family 39 member 1;Full=Zinc-iron-regulated transporter-like;Full=Zrt- and Irt-like protein 1;Short=ZIP-1;Short=hZIP1; Length: 324 a.a., Mass: 34250 Da,
fasta formatted sequence
Function: Mediates zinc uptake. May function as a major endogenous zinc uptake transporter in many cells of the body. Responsible for the rapid uptake and accumulation of physiologically effective zinc in prostate cells
Cellular location: Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Note=Shows a vesicular localization corresponding partially to the endoplasmic reticulum in several epithelial cell lines
Tissue specificity: Ubiquitous. Expressed in most adult and fetal tissues including the epidermis
