Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** 1. **Zinc Transporter:** SLC39A3, also known as ZIP3, is a zinc influx transporter that facilitates the uptake of zinc ions into cells. 2. **Cellular Expression:** ZIP3 is significantly expressed in various cell types, including pancreatic A cells, erythroid progenitor cells, pro-T cells, and myeloid dendritic cells. 3. **Tissue Distribution:** ZIP3 is widely distributed in tissues, including the pancreas, liver, kidney, and hematopoietic tissues. 4. **Evolutionary Conservation:** ZIP3 is highly conserved across species, suggesting its essential role in maintaining zinc homeostasis. **Pathways and Functions:** 1. **Zinc Homeostasis:** ZIP3 plays a critical role in maintaining cellular zinc homeostasis by facilitating the uptake of zinc ions into cells. 2. **Cell Morphogenesis:** ZIP3 has been implicated in regulating cell shape and morphology, particularly in the development of the embryonic cranial skeleton. 3. **Embryonic Development:** ZIP3 is essential for normal embryonic development, including in utero embryonic development and limb development. 4. **T Cell Homeostasis:** ZIP3 has been shown to regulate T cell homeostasis, which is critical for maintaining immune function. 5. **Metal Ion Transport:** ZIP3 is involved in the transport of other metal ions, including copper and manganese, in addition to zinc. 6. **Bile Salt and Organic Acid Transport:** ZIP3 has been implicated in the transport of bile salts and organic acids, which is essential for maintaining liver function. **Clinical Significance:** 1. **Zinc Deficiency:** ZIP3 mutations or dysregulation have been associated with zinc deficiency, which can lead to impaired immune function, growth retardation, and increased susceptibility to infections. 2. **Immunodeficiency:** ZIP3 deficiency has been linked to immunodeficiency disorders, including impaired T cell function and increased risk of infections. 3. **Neurological Disorders:** ZIP3 has been implicated in the pathogenesis of neurological disorders, including Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease, where zinc dysregulation is a contributing factor. 4. **Cancer:** ZIP3 has been shown to play a role in cancer development and progression, particularly in the context of zinc dysregulation. In conclusion, SLC39A3, or ZIP3, is a critical gene involved in maintaining cellular zinc homeostasis and regulating various cellular pathways, including cell morphogenesis, embryonic development, and T cell homeostasis. Its dysregulation has been implicated in several clinical disorders, highlighting the importance of ZIP3 in maintaining human health.
