Molecular insights of the human zinc transporter hZIP4

Zinc is the second most abundant transition metal in the body. Despite the fact that hundreds of biomolecules require zinc for proper function and/or structure, the mechanism of zinc transport into cells is not well-understood. ZnT and ZIP proteins are members of the SoLute Carrier (SLC) family of m...
