Summary: Enables zinc ion transmembrane transporter activity. Acts upstream of or within chordate embryonic development; limb development; and zinc ion transport. Predicted to be located in endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; genitourinary system; integumental system; nervous system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human SLC39A1 (solute carrier family 39 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.
