Summary: Predicted to enable zinc ion transmembrane transporter activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including intracellular zinc ion homeostasis; regulation of ferroptosis; and zinc ion transmembrane transport. Predicted to be located in endoplasmic reticulum membrane and nucleoplasm. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in agammaglobulinemia 9. Orthologous to human SLC39A7 (solute carrier family 39 member 7). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 2024]

What's a GeneRIF?

Overall, this study provides an important description about the role of ZIP7 and ZnT7, localized to both mitochondria and sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum and contribute to cellular Zn(2+)-muffling between cellular-compartments in hyperglycemia or hypertrophic cardiomyocytes via affecting sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum-mitochondria coupling.
Title: Zn(2+)-transporters ZIP7 and ZnT7 play important role in progression of cardiac dysfunction via affecting sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum-mitochondria coupling in hyperglycemic cardiomyocytes.
Markedly increased mRNA and protein levels of ZIP7 were observed in ventricular cardiomyocytes from diabetic rats or high-glucose-treated H9c2 cells while ZnT7 expression was low. ZIP7 phosphorylation was increased in response to high glucose in vivo and in vitro.
Title: Hyperglycemia-Induced Changes in ZIP7 and ZnT7 Expression Cause Zn(2+) Release From the Sarco(endo)plasmic Reticulum and Mediate ER Stress in the Heart.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
