Description:

The capacity of Nramp2 to transport iron and its ubiquitous expression make it a likely candidate for transferrin-independent uptake of iron in peripheral tissues. Airway epithelial cells increase both mRNA and expression of that isoform of Nramp-2 without an iron response element (-IRE) following exposure to iron.
