The zinc transporter ZIP9 (Slc39a9) regulates zinc dynamics essential to egg activation in zebrafish
Abstract The zinc transporter ZIP9 (SLC39A9) was recently characterized as a membrane androgen receptor in various teleost and mammalian cell models. ZIP9 shows the highest expression in ovaries of teleosts, a tissue in which both androgen signaling and zinc dynamics have significant roles. To exami...
