Target

  • Function
    Acts as a Mg(2+) transporter. Can also transport other divalent cations such as Fe(2+), Sr(2+), Ba(2+), Mn(2+) and Co(2+) but to a much less extent than Mg(2+).
  • Tissue specificity
    Widely expressed with highest levels in neuronal tissues.
  • Involvement in disease
    Defects in NIPA1 are the cause of spastic paraplegia autosomal dominant type 6 (SPG6) [MIM:600363]. Spastic paraplegia is a degenerative spinal cord disorder characterized by a slow, gradual, progressive weakness and spasticity of the lower limbs.
  • Sequence similarities
    Belongs to the NIPA family.
  • Cellular localization
    Cell membrane. Early endosome. Recruited to the cell membrane in response to low extracellular magnesium.
