Structural insights into the calcium-coupled zinc export of human ZnT1.

PubMed Abstract: Cellular zinc (Zn) homeostasis is essential to human health and is under tight regulations. Human zinc transporter 1 (hZnT1) is a plasma membrane-localized Zn exporter belonging to the ZnT family, and its functional aberration is associated with multiple diseases. Here, we show that hZnT1 works as a Zn/Ca exchanger. We determine the structure of hZnT1 using cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) single particle analysis. hZnT1 adopts a homodimeric structure, and each subunit contains a transmembrane domain consisting of six transmembrane segments, a cytosolic domain, and an extracellular domain. The transmembrane region displays an outward-facing conformation. On the basis of structural and functional analysis, we propose a model for the hZnT1-mediated Zn/Ca exchange. Together, these results facilitate our understanding of the biological functions of hZnT1 and provide a basis for further investigations of the ZnT family transporters.
