Specificity: |
Specific for SLC39A4. |
Immunogen: |
A synthetic peptide from human SLC39A4 conjugated to blue carrier protein was used as the antigen. |
Post Translational Modifications | The extracellular N-terminal ectodomain is cleaved when cells are Zn(2+) deficient, N-terminally cleaved SLC39A4 is internalized at a faster rate. Under excess Zn(2+) conditions, SLC39A4 on the cell surface is rapidly endocytosed, ubiquitinated and degraded. Glycosylated. |
Function | Selective transporter that mediates the uptake of Zn(2+). Plays an essential role for dietary zinc uptake from small intestine. The Zn(2+) uniporter activity is regulated by zinc availability. Exhibits also polyspecific binding and transport of Cu(2+), Cd(2+) and possibly Ni(2+) but at higher concentrations. |
