SLC39A6 also known as ZIP-6 functions as a zinc transporter involved in importing zinc into cells from the extracellular environment. This protein is part of the ZIP family and has a mass of approximately 93 kDa. ZIP-6 is frequently expressed in tissues such as liver kidney and various epithelial cells. ZIP transporters like ZIP-6 play an important role in zinc homeostasis by facilitating cellular uptake of this essential trace element which impacts many cellular processes.

Biological function summary

ZIP-6 actively regulates intracellular zinc levels essential for many cellular functions like growth and development. It exists independently and does not directly form a part of a larger complex. ZIP-6 enhances zinc-dependent signaling pathways and is necessary for different cellular tasks like gene expression and enzyme activity. By controlling zinc entry into cells ZIP-6 supports several zinc-driven biological processes impacting cellular metabolism and survival.

Pathways

Researchers link ZIP-6 to the JAK-STAT signaling and MAPK pathways. In these pathways zinc acts as a necessary cofactor for numerous enzymes and transcription factors. ZIP-6's zinc transport activity connects with proteins such as STAT3 in the JAK-STAT pathway influencing cell proliferation and differentiation. ZIP-6's regulation of zinc concentrations affects the MAPK pathway which includes proteins like ERK1/2 highlighting its involvement in signal transduction and cellular response to stimuli.

ZIP-6 plays an essential role in cancer progression and immune system dysfunctions. Overexpression of ZIP-6 associates with breast cancer where it can promote proliferation and metastasis by affecting zinc-dependent pathways. ZIP-6 activity relates also to immune-related disorders influencing the inflammatory response through interactions with NF-kappaB. Changes in the activity or expression of ZIP-6 alter zinc homeostasis adding complexity to its disease-related impact.

Target data

Zinc-influx transporter which plays a role in zinc homeostasis and in the induction of epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) (PubMed : 12839489, PubMed : 18272141, PubMed : 21422171, PubMed : 23919497, PubMed : 27274087, PubMed : 34394081). When associated with SLC39A10, the heterodimer formed by SLC39A10 and SLC39A6 mediates cellular zinc uptake to trigger cells to undergo epithelial- to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) (PubMed : 27274087). The SLC39A10-SLC39A6 heterodimer also controls NCAM1 phosphorylation and its integration into focal adhesion complexes during EMT (By similarity). Zinc influx inactivates GSK3B, enabling unphosphorylated SNAI1 in the nucleus to down-regulate adherence genes such as CDH1, causing loss of cell adherence (PubMed : 23919497). In addition, the SLC39A10-SLC39A6 heterodimer plays an essentiel role in initiating mitosis by importing zinc into cells to initiate a pathway resulting in the onset of mitosis (PubMed : 32797246). Participates in the T-cell receptor signaling regulation by mediating cellular zinc uptake into activated lymphocytes (PubMed : 21422171, PubMed : 30552163, PubMed : 34394081). Regulates the zinc influx necessary for proper meiotic progression to metaphase II (MII) that allows the oocyte-to-egg transition (PubMed : 25143461).
