Summary
Predicted to enable metal ion binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including cellular response to zinc ion; detoxification of copper ion; and intracellular zinc ion homeostasis. Predicted to act upstream of or within intracellular monoatomic cation homeostasis. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm and nucleus. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 2024]
