STS - steroid sulfatase Gene
Also Known as ES; ASC; XLI; ARSC; SSDD; ARSC1
Species: Homo sapiens
About STS
This gene has 6 transcripts (splice variants), 197 orthologues, 16 paralogues and is associated with 4 phenotypes. Broad expression in placenta (RPKM 15.1), fat (RPKM 11.7) and 22 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes a multi-pass membrane protein that is localized to the endoplasmic reticulum. It belongs to the sulfatase family and hydrolyzes several 3-beta-hydroxysteroid sulfates, which serve as metabolic precursors for estrogens, androgens, and Cholesterol. Mutations in this gene are associated with X-linked ichthyosis (XLI). Alternatively spliced transcript variants resulting from the use of different promoters have been described for this gene (PMID:17601726). [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2016]
