zinT/yodA	BacMet ID: BAC0457 Code for: Binding protein Family: calycin superfamily. ZinT family Sequence: FASTA Cross-database IDs: Link Organism: Escherichia coli (strain K12) Location: Chromosome Compound: Cadmium (Cd), Zinc (Zn) Description: Metal-binding protein (Cadmium-induced protein) ZinT; Function as a periplasmic zinc chaperone or mediate direct transport of zinc from the periplasm to the cytoplasm under zinc-limited conditions. Binds zinc with high affinity, and can also bind cadmium, mercury or nickel. Preferentially binds Zn2+ over Cd2+. Contains one high affinity metal binding site, and can bind additional metal ions at other sites; Repressed by Zur Length (amino acid): 216 Reference: Stojnev et al. 2007; Pubmed- 17632755	Similar resistance genes in 'BacMet Predicted database'
