Synonyms BCG-induced integral membrane protein in monocyte clone 103 protein; BIGM103; CDG2N; LIV-1 subfamily of ZIP zinc transporter 6; LZT-Hs6; PP3105; SLC39A8; Solute carrier family 39 member 8; ZIP-8; ZIP8; Zinc transporter ZIP8
DT Family Zinc (Zn(2+))-Iron (Fe(2+)) Permease (ZIP) Family ;
Tissue Specificity Expressed in thymus, placenta, lung, liver,pancreas and, to a lower extent, in spleen, testis, ovary, smallintestine, colon, leukocyte, heart. Highest expression is observedin pancreas.
Function This transporter mediates the influx of manganese and zinc. Plays a role in manganese reabsorption in the proximal tubule of the kidney and in manganese uptake into the brain.
Endogenous Substrate(s) Cd2+; Mn2+; Zn2+
