All cells have developed various mechanisms to regulate precisely the availability of important micronutrients such as zinc and copper; in many cells, this regulation is mediated by P‐type ATPases. Most of the P1‐ATPases have been described very recently, and little is known about their molecular mechanism and regulation. Here, we demonstrate that the expression of ZntA, a Zn,Cd‐transporting P‐type ATPase of
