OverviewNCBI Gene

This gene is predominantly expressed in prostate tissue, and is found to be upregulated in multiple cancer cell lines. 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. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against STEAP1 can act on the native protein depends on physical access: surface and secreted proteins are reachable by circulating antibodies, intracellular proteins usually are not.

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis

Seroatlas reads STEAP1 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against STEAP1 could matter depends on whether native STEAP1 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

STEAP1 is annotated at the cell surface, where native STEAP1 is exposed to circulating antibodies and is a prime autoantibody target that could block, deplete, or overstimulate it.

Annotation status

The present source text does not explicitly label STEAP1 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
