Drosophila ZnT1 is essential in the intestine for dietary zinc absorption.

Biochemical and biophysical research communications - 17 Dec 2020

Wang Zhiqing, Li Xinxin, Zhou Bing

Abstract excerpt

Zinc is an essential trace element and participates in a variety of biological processes. ZnT (SLC30) family members are generally responsible for zinc efflux across the membrane regulating zinc homeostasis. In mammals, the only predominantly plasma membrane resident ZnT has been reported to be ZnT1, and ZnT1-/ZnT1- mice die at the embryonic stage. In Drosophila, knock down of ZnT1 homologue...
