Term summary
- ID
- GO:0000006
- Name
- high-affinity zinc transmembrane transporter activity
- Ontology or CV name
- GO molecular function
- Definition
- Enables the transfer of zinc ions (Zn2+) from one side of a membrane to the other, probably powered by proton motive force. In high-affinity transport the transporter is able to bind the solute even if it is only present at very low concentrations.
