Systematic name YMR243C
Gene name ZRC1
Aliases OSR1
Feature type ORF, Verified
Coordinates Chr XIII:756166..754838
Primary SGDID S000004856


Description of YMR243C: Vacuolar membrane zinc transporter, transports zinc from the cytosol into the vacuole for storage; also has a role in resistance to zinc shock resulting from a sudden influx of zinc into the cytoplasm; human ortholog SLC30A10 functions as a Mn transporter and mutations in SLC30A10 cause neurotoxic accumulation of Mn in liver and brain[1][2][3][4]
