SLC30A1 Gene Summary [Human]

Predicted to enable calcium channel inhibitor activity and zinc ion transmembrane transporter activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including cellular divalent inorganic cation homeostasis; inorganic cation transmembrane transport; and negative regulation of transport. Predicted to act upstream of or within in utero embryonic development. Located in several cellular components, including Golgi apparatus; endoplasmic reticulum; and nuclear membrane.

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in human SLC30A1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
