Description
Exhibits iron ion transmembrane transporter activity. Involved in several processes, including bone mineralization; hemoglobin biosynthetic process; and hemopoiesis. Predicted to localize to basolateral plasma membrane and integral component of membrane. Used to study iron deficiency anemia. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hemochromatosis type 4. Is expressed in digestive system; gill; nervous system; solid lens vesicle; and yolk syncytial layer. Orthologous to human SLC40A1 (solute carrier family 40 member 1).
