Target Details for SLC30A8

Target: SLC30A8 (Solute Carrier Family 30 (Zinc Transporter), Member 8 (SLC30A8))

Alternative Name: SLC30A8

Background: SLC30A8 Antibody: SLC30A8 is a zinc efflux transporter involved in the accumulation of zinc in intracellular vesicles and is expressed at a high level in the pancreas, particularly in islets of Langerhans, and co-localizes with insulin in the secretory pathway granules of the insulin-secreting INS-1 cells (1). Allelic variants of SLC30A8 have been identified as major genetic risk factors for the development of Type 2 diabetes (2), but no genetic association has been found with Type 1 diabetes (3). SLC30A8 expression in ?-cells was found to be influenced by cytokine expression, particularly IFN-gamma and IL-1beta (4).
