The metal permease ZupT from Escherichia coli is a transporter with a broad substrate spectrum.
Grass G., Franke S., Taudte N., Nies D.H., Kucharski L.M., Maguire M.E., Rensing C.

The Escherichia coli zupT (formerly ygiE) gene encodes a cytoplasmic membrane protein (ZupT) related to members of the eukaryotic ZIP family of divalent metal ion transporters. Previously, ZupT was shown to be responsible for uptake of zinc. In this study, we show that ZupT is a divalent metal cation transporter of broad substrate specificity. An E. coli strain with a disruption in all known iron uptake systems could grow in the presence of chelators only if zupT was expressed. Heterologous expression of Arabidopsis thaliana ZIP1 could also alleviate iron deficiency in this E. coli strain, as could expression of indigenous mntH or feoABC. Transport studies with intact cells showed that ZupT facilitates uptake of 55Fe2+ similarly to uptake of MntH or Feo. Other divalent cations were also taken up by ZupT, as shown using 57Co2+. Expression of zupT rendered E. coli cells hypersensitive to Co2+ and sensitive to Mn2+. ZupT did not appear to be metal regulated: expression of a Phi(zupT-lacZ) operon fusion indicated that zupT is expressed constitutively at a low level. << Less

Point mutations change specificity and kinetics of metal uptake by ZupT from Escherichia coli.
Taudte N., Grass G.
The ZIP (ZRT-, IRT-like Protein) protein ZupT from Escherichia coli is a transporter with a broad substrate range. Phenotypic and transport analysis showed that ZupT, in addition to Zn(II), Fe(II) and Co(II) uptake, is also involved in transport of Mn(II) and Cd(II). Competition experiments with o ... >> More
The ZIP (ZRT-, IRT-like Protein) protein ZupT from Escherichia coli is a transporter with a broad substrate range. Phenotypic and transport analysis showed that ZupT, in addition to Zn(II), Fe(II) and Co(II) uptake, is also involved in transport of Mn(II) and Cd(II). Competition experiments with other substrate cations suggested that ZupT has a slight preference for Zn(II) and kinetic parameters for Zn(II) in comparison to Co(II) and Mn(II) transport support this observation. Metal uptake into cells by ZupT was optimum at near neutral pH and inhibited by ionophores. Bicarbonate or other ions did not influence metal-uptake via ZupT. Amino acid residues of ZupT contributing to substrate specificity were identified by site directed mutagenesis. ZupT with a H89A exchange lost Co(II) and Fe(II) transport activity, while the S117V mutant no longer transported Mn(II). ZupT with E152D was impaired in overall metal uptake but completely lost its ability to transport the substrates Zn(II) and Mn(II). These experimental findings expand our knowledge on the substrate specificity of ZupT and provide further insight into the function of ZupT as a bacterial member of the vastly distributed and important ZIP family. << Less
