About Slc39a2

Summary

Enables zinc ion transmembrane transporter activity. Acts upstream of or within zinc ion transport. Predicted to be located in cytoplasmic ribonucleoprotein granule and cytoplasmic vesicle. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Is expressed in liver; ovary; skin; stomach; and yolk sac. Orthologous to human SLC39A2 (solute carrier family 39 member 2).
