Protein name Zinc transporter ZIP12 (LIV-1 subfamily of ZIP zinc transporter 8) (LZT-Hs8) (Solute carrier family 39 member 12) (Zrt- and Irt-like protein 12) (ZIP-12)
Protein function Uniporter that promotes Zn(2+) import from the extracellular space to the cytoplasm across the cell membrane. The transport activity is temperature dependent. May play a role in neurulation and neurite extension. May play a key role in maintaini
