About Mt1

Summary

Predicted to enable copper ion binding activity and zinc ion binding activity. Involved in response to cadmium ion and response to zinc ion. Predicted to be located in cytosol and lysosome. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm and nucleus. Biomarker of kidney failure; median neuropathy; and transient cerebral ischemia. Orthologous to human MT1A (metallothionein 1A).
