ZnT10 (also known as SLC30A10) is a member of the Zinc transporter (ZnT) family of proteins that includes 10 members (SLC30A1 to SLC30A10).
The SLC30 family reduces the concentration of zinc in the cytoplasm by either exporting it out of the cell or transporting it into intracellular organelles.1
ZnT10 was identified as an essential manganese transporter. Manganese is an essential cation for the function of several enzymes, including some crucially important for the metabolism of neurotransmitters and other neuronal metabolic pathways. In fact, mutations in the ZnT10 gene were identified as the underlying cause for hereditary disorders of manganese metabolism leading to hypermanganesemia and accumulation and secondary toxicity in the liver, bone marrow, and the nervous system.2,3
ZnT10 also functions as a zinc transporter and can form heterodimers with other ZnT family transporters like ZnT3 and regulate influx of zinc into synaptic vesicles, hence regulating neuronal transmission and plasticity.4
