Summary: Enables protein tyrosine phosphatase activator activity and zinc ion transmembrane transporter activity. Involved in epithelial to mesenchymal transition. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including intracellular zinc ion homeostasis; positive regulation of B cell proliferation; and positive regulation of B cell receptor signaling pathway. Located in apical plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; ovary; sensory organ; and urinary system. Orthologous to human SLC39A10 (solute carrier family 39 member 10). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, May 2025]

Zip10-deficiency in mature B cells attenuated both T-cell-dependent and -independent immune responses in vivo. The Zip10-deficient mature B cells proliferated poorly in response to BCR cross-linking, as a result of dysregulated BCR signaling.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
