Zinc is an essential nutrient for all organisms because of the many important roles this metal plays. Movement of zinc into and out of cells and subcellular organelles is mediated by zinc transporter proteins. In many organisms, zinc uptake is mediated by members of the ZIP family of metal ion transporters. In mammals, the Zip1, Zip2, Zip3, Zip4, Zip5, LIV- 1 (Zip6), KE4 (Zip7), and BIGM103 (Zip8) proteins have been implicated in zinc uptake in a variety of cell and tissue types. Zip3 (SLC39A3) encodes a 314aa protein that has an N-terminal signal peptide. Overexpression of the mZIP3 homolog in HEK293 cells increased Zn uptake in similar fashion to mZIP1 and mZIP2, however, mZIP3 specificity for zinc could be less than reported for the two other Zip transporters. Zinc-depleted THP1 cells have downregulated Zip3 expression. Applications: Suitable for use in Western Blot, ELISA. Other applications not tested.
