Also known as ZIP1
Summary
SLC39A1 (solute carrier family 39 member 1, HGNC:12876) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 1q21.3, encoding Zinc transporter ZIP1 (Q9NY26). Transporter for the divalent cation Zn(2+).
This gene encodes a member of the zinc-iron permease family. The encoded protein is localized to the cell membrane and acts as a zinc uptake transporter. This gene has been linked to prostate cancer, breast cancer, and Alzheimer’s disease. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

- Mitochondrial membrane potential is reduced focally at a fission site by the Drp1 recruitment, which is initiated by the interaction of Drp1 with mitochondrial zinc transporter Zip1 and Zn(2+) entry through the Zip1-MCU complex. After division, healthy mitochondria restore MMP levels and participate in the fusion-fission cycle again, but mitochondria that fail to restore MMP undergo mitophagy. (PMID:30581142)

Enriched among interaction partners
Reactome pathways and GO biological processes over-represented among this gene’s 46 IntAct physical interaction partners (hypergeometric vs the genome-wide background, BH-FDR, gene-set size 15–500, ranked by fold). A functional readout of the neighbourhood — distinct from this gene’s own memberships above, and biased toward well-studied / hub proteins, so read it as themes rather than proof.
