The directed movement of lead (Pb) ions into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate, or extent of metal ion transport. Metal ion transport is the directed movement of metal ions, any metal ion with an electric charge, into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore. The directed movement of transition metal ions into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore. A transition metal is an element whose atom has an incomplete d-subshell of extranuclear electrons, or which gives rise to a cation or cations with an incomplete d-subshell. Transition metals often have more than one valency state. Biologically relevant transition metals include vanadium, manganese, iron, copper, cobalt, nickel, molybdenum and silver. The directed movement of sodium ions (Na+) into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore. The directed movement of divalent metal cations, any metal ion with a +2 electric charge, into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore. The directed movement of potassium ions (K+) into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore. The directed movement of cations, atoms or small molecules with a net positive charge, into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore. The directed movement of metal ions, any metal ion with an electric charge, into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore. The directed movement of aluminum (Al) ions into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore. The directed movement of charged atoms or small charged molecules into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore.
