Biochem/physiol Actions

SLC39A5 (ZIP5) is a zinc uptake transporter that specifically transports Zn+2 ions. It is expressed in intestine, pancreas, liver and kidney. ZIP5 maintains zinc homeostasis and plays an important role in the uptake of dietary zinc across apical membrane of enterocytes in the intestine. Zinc transport by ZIP5 is important to protect the pancreatic acinar cells against zinc toxicity.

Sequence

Synthetic peptide located within the following region: HYLAQLFGLYGENGTLTAGGLARLLHSLGLGRVQGLRLGQHGPLTGRAAS

Physical form

Purified antibody supplied in 1x PBS buffer with 0.09% (w/v) sodium azide and 2% sucrose.

ZIP5 localizes to the baso-lateral membranes of intestinal enterocytes and pancreatic acinar cells and is internalized and degraded coordinately in these cell-types during periods of dietary zinc deficiency. These cell-types are thought to control zinc excretion from the body. The

Translation of the basolateral zinc transporter ZIP5 is repressed during zinc deficiency but Zip5 mRNA remains associated with polysomes and can be rapidly translated when zinc is repleted. Herein, we examined the mechanisms regulating translation of Zip5. The 3'-untranslated region

The mouse and human Zip5 proteins are members of the ZIP family of metal ion transporters. In this study, we present evidence that mouse Zip5 is a zinc uptake transporter that is specific for Zn(II) over other potential metal ion
