Summary: Enables zinc ion transmembrane transporter activity. Involved in intracellular zinc ion homeostasis and zinc ion import into Golgi lumen. Acts upstream of or within zinc ion transport. Located in Golgi apparatus; cytoplasmic vesicle; and perinuclear region of cytoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including nervous system and urinary system. Orthologous to human SLC30A7 (solute carrier family 30 member 7). [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.
