SLC39A14

protein-coding

solute carrier family 39 member 14, the group of Solute carrier family 39

Gene summary

This gene encodes a member of the the SLC39A family of divalent metal transporters that mediates the cellular uptake of manganese, zinc, iron, and cadmium. The encoded protein contains eight transmembrane domains, a histidine-rich motif, and a metalloprotease motif, and is expressed on the plasma membrane and the endocytic vesicle membrane. It is an important transporter of nontransferrin-bound iron and a critical regulator of manganese homeostasis. Naturally occurring mutations in this gene are associated with neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation and early-onset parkinsonism-dystonia with hypermanganesemia.

Manifestation: Biochemical; Musculoskeletal; Neurologic

Intervention: Biochemical; Musculoskeletal

Rationale: In Hyperostosis cranialis interna, surveillance for sequelae related to overgrowth, including hearing evaluation, assessment of signs of increased intracranial pressure and cranial nerve entrapment, can allow early surgical management; In Hypermanganesemia with dystonia 2, individuals have been described with childhood-onset neurodegenerative findings, and medical treatment (with early manganese chelation therapy) has been described as clinically beneficial

ClinVar Variants & Pathogenicity by Type

Statistics based on transcript NM_001128431.4. Only rare variants are included.

We include only reliable ClinVar variants with their consequences to MANE Select, MANE Plus Clinical transcripts, or transcripts with TSL equal to 1. Click a count to filter the variants table below.

Slight differences between displayed counts and ClinVar may occur due to a different transcript/consequence chosen by our variant effect predictor, or because we classify Benign/Likely benign as Likely benign and Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic as Likely pathogenic.

Function
FUNCTION: Broad-scope metal ion transporter with a preference for zinc uptake (PubMed:29621230). Also mediates cellular uptake of nontransferrin-bound iron. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15642354, ECO:0000269|PubMed:27231142, ECO:0000269|PubMed:29621230}.;
Disease
DISEASE: Hyperostosis cranialis interna (HCIN) [MIM:144755]: An autosomal dominant bone disorder characterized by endosteal hyperostosis and osteosclerosis of the calvaria and the skull base. The progressive bone overgrowth causes entrapment and dysfunction of cranial nerves I, II, V, VII, and VIII, its first symptoms often presenting during the second decade of life. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:29621230}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry. Conditional knockin mice overexpressing Arg-438 variant, which is the mouse equivalent of human variant Leu-441, in osteoblasts have a severe skeletal phenotype marked by a drastic increase in cortical thickness due to an enhanced endosteal bone formation, resembling the underlying pathology in HCI patients. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:29621230}.;
