Supplementary information

The DMT1 protein also known as divalent metal transporter 1 or NRAMP2 functions as an essential transporter for divalent metal ions including iron and manganese. DMT1 has a molecular mass around 65 kDa and is expressed widely in tissues like the intestine liver and brain where it facilitates the uptake of these ions. In the gut it plays a significant role in iron absorption from dietary sources. DMT1 protein contributes to maintaining systemic iron levels important for many physiological processes.
Biological function summary

DMT1 facilitates cellular uptake of iron important for oxygen transport and DNA synthesis. As part of its function DMT1 operates independently not as a component of a larger protein complex enabling it to transport metal ions across cell membranes directly. This process ensures that cells receive necessary ions for their metabolic activities and energy production aiding in cellular homeostasis.

Pathways

DMT1 integrates into important biological systems like the iron metabolism pathway and the manganese transport pathway. It works alongside ferritin a protein responsible for storing iron within cells to regulate iron availability and prevent toxicity. Similarly its role in the manganese transport pathway helps maintain manganese homeostasis which protease enzymes and neurotransmitter synthesis rely on.

DMT1 shows significant relevance to iron overload conditions such as hemochromatosis and neurodegenerative diseases like Parkinson’s disease. Mutations or dysregulation in DMT1 expression can lead to improper iron accumulation contributing to oxidative stress and neuronal damage respectively. Its role in iron uptake and regulation therefore connects it with proteins like hepcidin influential in maintaining iron balance impacting these conditions.

Target data

Proton-coupled metal ion symporter operating with a proton to metal ion stoichiometry of 1 : 1 (PubMed : 17109629, PubMed : 17293870, PubMed : 22736759, PubMed : 25326704, PubMed : 25491917). Selectively transports various divalent metal cations, in decreasing affinity : Cd(2+) > Fe(2+) > Co(2+), Mn(2+) >> Zn(2+), Ni(2+), VO(2+) (PubMed : 17109629, PubMed : 17293870, PubMed : 22736759, PubMed : 25326704, PubMed : 25491917). Essential for maintenance of iron homeostasis by modulating intestinal absorption of dietary Fe(2+) and TF-associated endosomal Fe(2+) transport in erythroid precursors and other cells (By similarity). Enables Fe(2+) and Mn(2+) ion entry into mitochondria, and is thus expected to promote mitochondrial heme synthesis, iron-sulfur cluster biogenesis and antioxidant defense (By similarity) (PubMed : 24448823). Can mediate uncoupled fluxes of either protons or metal ions.
