Summary: Enables ferrous iron transmembrane transporter activity; identical protein binding activity; and peptide hormone binding activity. Involved in iron ion export across plasma membrane and multicellular organismal-level iron ion homeostasis. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including iron ion transmembrane transport; positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II; and spleen trabecula formation. Located in basolateral plasma membrane and synaptic vesicle. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; extraembryonic component; genitourinary system; gut; and hemolymphoid system gland. Used to study hemochromatosis type 4. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hemochromatosis type 4. Orthologous to human SLC40A1 (solute carrier family 40 member 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
