| Post Translational Modifications | Ubiquitinated by WWP2. N-glycosylated. |
| Function | Proton-coupled metal ion symporter operating with a proton to metal ion stoichiometry of 1:1. Selectively transports various divalent metal cations, in decreasing affinity: Cd(2+) > Fe(2+) > Co(2+), Mn(2+) >> Zn(2+), Ni(2+), VO(2+). Essential for maintenance of iron homeostasis by modulating intestinal absorption of dietary Fe(2+) and TF-associated endosomal Fe(2+) transport in erythroid precursors and other cells. Enables Fe(2+) and Mn(2+) ion entry into mitochondria, and is thus expected to promote mitochondrial heme synthesis, iron-sulfur cluster biogenesis and antioxidant defense. Can mediate uncoupled fluxes of either protons or metal ions. |
