2.A.7.25.9
Magnesium transporter NIPA3; NIPAL1; NPAL1; SLC57A3 (NIPA-like protein 1) (Non-imprinted in Prader-Willi/Angelman syndrome region protein 3 homologue). It is a Mg2+ transporter that can also transport Sr2+, Ba2+, Fe2+ and Cu2+ (Gyimesi and Hediger 2022).  The human ortholog is 87% identical to the mouse protein.
