FUNCTION: Divalent transition metal (iron and manganese) transporter involved in iron metabolism and host resistance to certain pathogens. Macrophage-specific membrane transport function. Controls natural resistance to infection with intracellular parasites. Pathogen resistance involves sequestration of Fe(2+) and Mn(2+), cofactors of both prokaryotic and eukaryotic catalases and superoxide dismutases, not only to protect the macrophage against its own generation of reactive oxygen species, but to deny the cations to the pathogen for synthesis of its protective enzymes. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein (Probable). TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Macrophages; peripheral blood leukocytes, lung, spleen and liver. INDUCTION: In response to lymphokine or bacterial products. POLYMORPHISM: Genetic variation in SLC11A1 is associated with susceptibility to infection with Mycobacterium ulcerans [MIM:610446]. POLYMORPHISM: Genetic variations in SLC11A1 determine Mycobacterium tuberculosis susceptibility [MIM:607948]. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the NRAMP family. GENE SYNONYMS:SLC11A1 LSH NRAMP NRAMP1.
