Differential subcellular localization of the splice variants of the zinc transporter ZnT5 is dictated by the different C-terminal regions.

Zinc is emerging as an important intracellular signaling molecule, as well as fulfilling essential structural and catalytic functions through incorporation in a myriad of zinc metalloproteins so it is important to elucidate the molecular mechanisms of zinc homeostasis, including the subcellular loca...
