Slc39a14 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable monoatomic cation transmembrane transporter activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including cellular response to glucose stimulus; intracellular zinc ion homeostasis; and transition metal ion transport. Predicted to act upstream of or within iron ion transport and zinc ion transport. Predicted to be located in apical plasma membrane; basolateral plasma membrane; and bounding membrane of organelle. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hypermanganesemia with dystonia 2. Orthologous to human SLC39A14 (solute carrier family 39 member 14).
