Human genetic adaptation related to cellular zinc homeostasis.

Human genetic adaptation related to cellular zinc homeostasis.

SLC30A9 encodes a ubiquitously zinc transporter (ZnT9) and has been consistently suggested as a candidate for positive selection in humans. However, no direct adaptive molecular phenotype has been demonstrated. Our results provide evidence for directional selection operating in two major complementa...
