STEAP3 metalloreductase
Alias
AHMIO2 | STMP3 | TSAP6 | dudlin-2 | dudulin-2 | pHyde
This gene encodes a multipass membrane protein that functions as an iron transporter. The encoded protein can reduce both iron (Fe3+) and copper (Cu2+) cations. This protein may mediate downstream responses to p53, including promoting apoptosis. Deficiency in this gene can cause anemia. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
