Preferred Label : SLC30A8 wt Allele;

NCIt synonyms : Solute Carrier Family 30 (Zinc Transporter), Member 8 Gene; ZNT8; Solute Carrier Family 30 Member 8 wt Allele; ZnT-8;

NCIt definition : Human SLC30A8 wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 8q24.11 and is approximately 226 kb in length. This allele, which encodes zinc transporter 8 protein, is involved in zinc transport and insulin homeostasis. Mutation in the gene may be associated with increased susceptibility to noninsulin-dependent diabetes mellitus.;
