Human Gene SLC11A1 (ENST00000233202.11) from GENCODE V44
Description: Homo sapiens solute carrier family 11 member 1 (SLC11A1), mRNA. (from RefSeq NM_000578) RefSeq Summary (NM_000578): This gene is a member of the solute carrier family 11 (proton-coupled divalent metal ion transporters) family and encodes a multi-pass membrane protein. The protein functions as a divalent transition metal (iron and manganese) transporter involved in iron metabolism and host resistance to certain pathogens. Mutations in this gene have been associated with susceptibility to infectious diseases such as tuberculosis and leprosy, and inflammatory diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and Crohn disease. Alternatively spliced variants that encode different protein isoforms have been described but the full-length nature of only one has been determined. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]. Gencode Transcript: ENST00000233202.11 Gencode Gene: ENSG00000018280.17 Transcript (Including UTRs) Position: hg38 chr2:218,382,273-218,396,894 Size: 14,622 Total Exon Count: 15 Strand: + Coding Region Position: hg38 chr2:218,382,369-218,395,035 Size: 12,667 Coding Exon Count: 15
ID:NRAM1_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Natural resistance-associated macrophage protein 1; Short=NRAMP 1; FUNCTION: Divalent transition metal (iron and manganese) transporter involved in iron metabolism and host resistance to certain pathogens. Macrophage-specific membrane transport function. Controls natural resistance to infection with intracellular parasites. Pathogen resistance involves sequestration of Fe(2+) and Mn(2+), cofactors of both prokaryotic and eukaryotic catalases and superoxide dismutases, not only to protect the macrophage against its own generation of reactive oxygen species, but to deny the cations to the pathogen for synthesis of its protective enzymes. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein (Probable). TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Macrophages; peripheral blood leukocytes, lung, spleen and liver. INDUCTION: In response to lymphokine or bacterial products. POLYMORPHISM: Genetic variation in SLC11A1 is associated with susceptibility to infection with Mycobacterium ulcerans [MIM:610446]. POLYMORPHISM: Genetic variations in SLC11A1 determine Mycobacterium tuberculosis susceptibility [MIM:607948]. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the NRAMP family.
The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
