SLC39A13 solute carrier family 39 member 13 [ Homo sapiens (human) ]
Source: NCBI Gene (ID 91252)

Symbol: SLC39A13

Full name: solute carrier family 39 member 13

Gene type: protein coding

RefSeq status: REVIEWED

Also known as: EDSSPD3; LZT-Hs9; SCDEDS; ZIP13

Summary: This gene encodes a member of the LIV-1 subfamily of the ZIP transporter family. The encoded transmembrane protein functions as a zinc transporter. Mutations in this gene have been associated with the spondylocheiro dysplastic form of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome. Alternate transcript variants have been found for this gene.
