About This Section

Entrez Gene summary for SLC39A2:

This gene encodes a member of the ZIP family of metal ion transporters. The encoded protein functions as a zinc

transporter. Mutations in this gene may be associated with susceptibility to carotid artery disease. Multiple

transcript variants have been described. (provided by RefSeq, Mar 2010)

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: S39A2_HUMAN, Q9NP94

Function: Mediates zinc uptake. Zinc uptake may be mediated by a Zn(2+)-HCO(3)(-) symport mechanism and can function in

the presence of albumin. May also transport other divalent cations. May be important in contact inhibition of normal

epithelial cells and loss of its expression may play a role in tumorigenesis
