SLC11A2 (also known as DMT1, Nramp2, and DCT1) is a member of the divalent cation transporters that plays a central role in iron homeostasis. SLC11A2 is widely expressed in many tissues including brain, kidney, testis, duodenum and placenta. As a membrane protein, SLC11A2 is localized on the apical membrane of enterocytes as well as in transferrin-cycle endosomes. Four isoforms of SLC11A2 exist due to the alternative splicing. They differ at the NH2 and COOH termini but share a common central domain. A variety of molecular weights of SLC11A2 in western blot analysis, ranging from 50 to 100 kDa, has been reported in different cells and species. The differences in molecular weights may be attributed to the level of glycosylation, proteolysis, or the membrane protein itself. This antibody detected various forms of SLC11A2 of 55-100 kDa.
