    Summary
    Enables cobalt ion transmembrane transporter activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including erythrocyte development; multicellular organismal-level iron ion homeostasis; and transition metal ion transport. Located in brush border membrane; endosome; and extracellular vesicle. Is expressed in several structures, including intestine; liver; reproductive system; spleen; and yolk sac. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Parkinson's disease; amyotrophic lateral sclerosis; anemia; and hypochromic anemia. Orthologous to human SLC11A2 (solute carrier family 11 member 2).

    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.

      Description
      Transcript Variant: This variant (2) differs in the 3' coding region and 3' UTR, compared to variant 1. These differences result in a protein (isoform 2) with a longer and distinct C-terminus, compared to isoform 1. This variant does not have a stem-loop iron response element (IRE) in the 3' UTR.
