Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** SLC30A4 is a transmembrane transporter belonging to the solute carrier family 30. It is characterized by its ability to transport zinc ions across cellular membranes, with a preference for the plasma membrane and late endosome membranes. The transporter is also involved in the uptake of zinc ions into lysosomes and the export of zinc ions across the plasma membrane. SLC30A4 is highly expressed in various cell types, including mural cells, luminal cells of prostate epithelium, ovarian surface epithelial cells, and pancreatic A cells. **Pathways and Functions:** The zinc transporter encoded by SLC30A4 is involved in several cellular pathways, including: 1. **Zinc homeostasis:** SLC30A4 plays a crucial role in maintaining zinc balance within cells by regulating the transport of zinc ions across cellular membranes. 2. **Cell signaling:** Zinc ions are essential for various signaling pathways, including those involved in immune response, cell proliferation, and differentiation. SLC30A4 is involved in the regulation of these pathways by controlling the availability of zinc ions. 3. **Immune response:** SLC30A4 is expressed in immune cells, including granulocyte monocyte progenitor cells, and is involved in the regulation of immune responses, including the response to toxic substances and zinc ions. 4. **Neurotransmission:** SLC30A4 is also expressed in the nervous system, where it plays a role in the regulation of GABAergic neurotransmission. **Clinical Significance:** Dysregulation of SLC30A4 has been implicated in various diseases, including: 1. **Zinc deficiency:** Impaired zinc transport by SLC30A4 can lead to zinc deficiency, which is associated with impaired immune function, growth retardation, and increased risk of infections. 2. **Neurodegenerative diseases:** SLC30A4 has been implicated in neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease, where zinc dysregulation is thought to contribute to disease progression. 3. **Cancer:** SLC30A4 has been shown to be overexpressed in certain types of cancer, including prostate cancer, where it is thought to contribute to tumorigenesis and metastasis. 4. **Autoimmune diseases:** SLC30A4 has been implicated in autoimmune diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis, where zinc dysregulation is thought to contribute to disease progression. In conclusion, SLC30A4 is a zinc transporter with multifaceted roles in various physiological processes, including zinc homeostasis, cell signaling, and immune response. Its dysregulation has been implicated in various diseases, highlighting the need for further research into the clinical significance of this gene.
