Gene information for Slc30a2 (Rattus norvegicus)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID25362
Official gene symbolSlc30a2
Full namesolute carrier family 30 (zinc transporter), member 2
AliasesZnT-2,Znt2
Gene summaryThe protein encoded by this gene is a zinc transporter. It is localized in the vesicles and suggested to protect the cells from zinc toxicity by facilitating vesicular sequestration. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene, one of which initiates translation from a non-AUG (CUG) start codon. [provided by RefSeq]
