2.A.4.3.12 Zinc transporter, Ttm-1, of 410 aas and 6 TMSs in a 2 + 2 + 2 TMS arrangement. It promotes excretion of zinc from intestinal cells into the intestinal lumen in response to increased dietary zinc (Roh et al. 2013). It is also involved in cadmium resistance, possibly by promoting its transport from cells (Huffman et al. 2004).
It is also involved in resistance to B. thuringiensis pore-forming toxin Cry5B
downstream of the sek-1 and pmk-1 MAPK kinase pathway.
