{"symbol":"STEAP3","synonyms":["TSAP6","STMP3","DUDLIN-2","AHMIO2","dudulin-2","pHyde"],"name":"STEAP family member 3, metalloreductase","description":"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.
