2.A.5.1.1
High affinity zinc-regulated zinc uptake transporter, Zrt1 of 376 aas and 8 TMSs.  May be a transceptor with both transport and receptor (signal transduction) functions (Diallinas 2017; Schothorst et al. 2017). Activated at the transcriptional level by Yap1 and Ace1 (Gomes et al. 2005). Zrt1 may also transport, or influence the uptake of Cd2+ (Gomes et al. 2005).
