Metalloreductase STEAP1 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the STEAP1 gene. [5]

This gene is predominantly expressed in prostate tissue, and is found to be upregulated in multiple cancer cell lines [6] . The gene product is predicted to be a six-transmembrane protein, and was shown to be a cell surface antigen significantly expressed at cell-cell junctions. [5]
