Summary Summary of gene provided in NCBI Entrez Gene.
The protein encoded by this gene transports zinc from the Golgi and endoplasmic reticulum to the cytoplasm. This transport may be important for activation of tyrosine kinases, some of which could be involved in cancer progression. Therefore, modulation of

UniProt ID Q92504
Protein name Zinc transporter SLC39A7 (Histidine-rich membrane protein Ke4) (Really interesting new gene 5 protein) (Solute carrier family 39 member 7) (Zrt-, Irt-like protein 7) (ZIP7)
Protein function Transports Zn(2+) from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER)/Golgi apparatus to the cytosol, playing an essential role in the regulation of cytosolic zinc levels (PubMed:14525538, PubMed:15705588, PubMed:28205653, PubMed:29980658). Acts as a gatekeeper
