background | Zinc transporter ZIP6 (SLC39A6) or LIV-1 is a protein that belongs to a subfamily of proteins group that displays structural specifications of zinc transporters in the cell membrane. Overexpression of this protein is observed in breast, prostate, and kidney tumor cells. Lately, LIV-1 is a dependable marker for detection of estrogen receptor positive breast cancer, which can be used to detect luminal breast cancer type A. |
molecular weight | The protein has a predicted MW of 60.39 kDa. Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 80-110 kDa based on Tris-Bis PAGE result. |
available size | 100 µg, 500 µg |
endotoxin | Less than 1EU per μg by the LAL method. |

Function Zinc-influx transporter which plays a role in zinc homeostasis and in the induction of epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) (PubMed:12839489, PubMed:18272141, PubMed:21422171, PubMed:23919497, PubMed:27274087, PubMed:34394081). When associated with SLC39A10, the heterodimer formed by SLC39A10 and SLC39A6 mediates cellular zinc uptake to trigger cells to undergo epithelial- to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) (PubMed:27274087). The SLC39A10-SLC39A6 heterodimer also controls NCAM1 phosphorylation and its integration into focal adhesion complexes during EMT (By similarity). Zinc influx inactivates GSK3B, enabling unphosphorylated SNAI1 in the nucleus to down-regulate adherence genes such as CDH1, causing loss of cell adherence (PubMed:23919497). In addition, the SLC39A10-SLC39A6 heterodimer plays an essentiel role in initiating mitosis by importing zinc into cells to initiate a pathway resulting in the onset of mitosis (PubMed:32797246). Participates in the T-cell receptor signaling regulation by mediating cellular zinc uptake into activated lymphocytes (PubMed:21422171, PubMed:30552163, PubMed:34394081). Regulates the zinc influx necessary for proper meiotic progression to metaphase II (MII) that allows the oocyte-to-egg transition (PubMed:25143461). |
Subellular location Cell membrane ; Multi-pass membrane protein. Cell projection, lamellipodium membrane ; Multi-pass membrane protein. Membrane raft ; Multi-pass membrane protein. Apical cell membrane. Note=Localizes to lipid rafts in T cells and is recruited into the immunological synapse in response to TCR stimulation (PubMed:34394081). In the choroid plexus is limited to the apical membrane in epithelial cells (By similarity). |
Tissues Highly expressed in the breast, prostate, placenta, kidney, pituitary and corpus callosum (PubMed:12839489). Weakly expressed in heart and intestine. Also highly expressed in cells derived from an adenocarcinoma of the cervix and lung carcinoma (PubMed:12839489). |
Structure Interacts with SLC39A10; which triggers cells to undergo EMT and mitosis (PubMed:27274087). Found in a complex with SLC39A6, SLC39A10 and with the 'Ser-727' phosphorylated form of STAT3 throughout mitosis (PubMed:32797246). Found in a complex with SLC39A6, SLC39A10 and with NCAM1; this complex controls NCAM1 phosphorylation and integration into focal adhesion complexes during epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) (By similarity). Found in a complex with SLC39A6, SLC39A10 and with GSK3B that controls NCAM1 phosphorylation (By similarity). |
Post-translational modification Cleaved on the N-terminus before locating to the plasma membrane.; N-glycosylated.; Phosphorylated by ZAP70 in response to TCR stimulation leading to its activation. |
