Zinc transporter 1 (ZNT1) expression on the cell surface is elaborately controlled by cellular zinc levels

Zinc transporter 1 (ZNT1) is the only zinc transporter predominantly located on the plasma membrane, where it plays a pivotal role exporting cytosolic zinc to the extracellular space. Numerous studies have focused on the physiological and pathological functions of ZNT1. However, its biochemical features remain poorly understood. Here, we investigated the regulation of ZNT1 expression in human and vertebrate cells, and found that ZNT1 expression...
