Highest antigen sequence indentity to the following orthologs: Mouse (78%), Rat (78%).
This recombinant protein control fragment may be used for blocking experiments. In IHC/ICC and WB experiments, we recommend a 100x molar excess of the protein fragment control based on the concentration and the molecular weight. Pre-incubate the antibody-protein control fragment mixture for 30 min at room temperature.
The six-transmembrane epithelial antigen of prostate 4 (STEAP4) is a member of a family of metalloreductases identified as cell-surface antigens in prostate tissue. Similar to two other members of the STEAP family (STEAP 2 and STEAP3), STEAP4 promotes both iron and copper reduction. STEAP4 is highly expressed in placenta, lung, heart and prostate tissues, and overexpressed in prostate cancer cells compared to normal prostate cells. Overexpression of STEAP4 in prostate cells significantly increases cell growth and colony formation, suggesting STEAP4 may have a role in cell proliferation and prostate cancer progression.
