General annotation (Comments)

Function

May act as a zinc-influx transporter. Ref.5

Subcellular location

Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Ref.5

Tissue specificity

Highly expressed in the breast, protate, placenta, kidney, pituitary and corpus callosum. Weakly expressed in heart and intestine. Also highly expressed in cells derived from an adenocarcinoma of the cervix and lung carcinoma. Ref.5

Induction

Up-regulated by estrogen in breast cancer cells lines. Ref.4

Post-translational modification

N-glycosylated. Ref.5

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the ZIP transporter (TC 2.A.5) family. [View classification]
