Validated All-in-One™ qPCR Primer for STEAP2(NM_001244944.1) Search again
By default, qPCR primer pairs are designed to measure the expression level of the splice variant (accession number) you selected for this gene WITHOUT consideration of other possible variants of this gene. If this gene has multiple variants, and you would like to measure the expression levels of one particular variant, multiple variants, or all variants, please contact us for a custom service project at inquiry@genecopoeia.com.

Summary
This gene is a member of the STEAP family and encodes a multi-pass membrane protein that localizes to the Golgi complex, the plasma membrane, and the vesicular tubular structures in the cytosol. A highly similar protein in mouse has both ferrireductase and cupric reductase activity, and stimulates the cellular uptake of both iron and copper in vitro. Increased transcriptional expression of the human gene is associated with prostate cancer progression. Alternate transcriptional splice variants, encoding different isoforms, have been characterized.
Gene References into function
- cloning and characterization of STAMP1, which is expressed in both normal prostate and prostate neoplasms
- STEAP2 is involved in the development of prostate cancer. As a cell-surface antigen, it is a potential diagnostic or therapeutic target in prostate cancer.
- Expression of STAMP2, a gene highly similar to STAMP1 (STEAP2), in prostate cancer cells significantly increases cell growth and colony formation suggesting that STAMP2 may have a role in cell proliferation.
- The murine ortholog, Steap2, is a ferrireductase, cupric reductase, and stimulates cellular uptake of both iron and copper in vitro.
