Metalloreductase STEAP2

**Semantic type:** Amino Acid, Peptide, or Protein|Enzyme

**Definition:** Metalloreductase STEAP2 (490 aa, ~56 kDa) is encoded by the human STEAP2 gene. This protein is involved in reversible NADPH-dependent conversion of chelated ferric ions to chelated ferrous ions and may also convert cupric ions to cuprous ions.
