Background Information
The zinc transporter LIV-1 (also known as SLC39A6 or ZIP6) was originally identified as an estrogen-induced gene in breast cancer cells. Elevated LIV-1 expression is reportedly related to cancer progression in various types of cancer, including breast, prostate, pancreatic, cervical and liver cancers. While correlation of LIV-1 and prognosis may vary. LIV 1 has 3 isoforms with MW of 85-100 (glycosylation and phosphorylation), 48 and 32 kDa while migrates as different bands in different lysates in SDS-PAGE. Furthermore, it has been reported in the papers that full-length SLC39A6/ZIP6, as the pro-protein, is predicted to be 85 kDa and produces a 103 kDa band, the N-terminal fragment after cleavage is 35 kDa, and the cleaved ZIP6 is 68 kDa (PMID: 23919497, PMID: 26444413).
