Function
Electroneutral transporter of the plasma membrane mediating the cellular uptake of zinc and manganese, two divalent metal cations important for development, tissue homeostasis or immunity . Functions as an energy-dependent symporter, transporting through the membranes an electroneutral complex composed of a divalent metal cation, a bicarbonate and a selenite anion or yet a metal cation and two bicarbonate anions . May also transport iron, mercury and cobalt through membranes . Beside these endogenous cellular substrates, also imports cadmium a non-essential metal which is cytotoxic and carcinogenic . Through zinc import, indirectly regulates the metal-dependent transcription factor MTF1 and the expression of some metalloproteases involved in cartilage catabolism and also probably heart development . Also indirectly regulates the expression of proteins involved in cell morphology and cyt

Cellular localization
Cell membrane ; Multi-pass membrane protein . Lysosome membrane ; Multi-pass membrane protein . Apical cell membrane ; Multi-pass membrane protein . Basolateral cell membrane ; Multi-pass membrane protein . Localizes to the lysosome of activated T-cells (PubMed:19401385). A large fraction of the protein is found intracellularly in microvascular capillary endothelial cells that constitute the blood-brain barrier (PubMed:31699897). Localized and functional at both apical and basolateral membranes of microvascular capillary endothelial cells that constitute the blood-brain barrier (PubMed:31699897). .
Tissue expression
Ubiquitously expressed (PubMed:12504855, PubMed:22898811, PubMed:28056086, PubMed:31699897). Expressed in thymus, placenta, lung, liver, pancreas, salivary gland and, to a lower extent, in spleen, testis, ovary, small intestine, colon, leukocyte, heart. Highest expression is observed in pancreas (PubMed:12504855). Expressed by macrophages (at protein level) (PubMed:28056086). Expressed by microvascular capillary endothelial cells that constitute the blood-brain barrier (at protein level) (PubMed:31699897).
