Background STC2 is a secreted, homodimeric glycoprotein which expressed in a wide variety of tissues. STC2 has an anti-hypocalcemic action on calcium and phosphate homeostasis. It may have autocrine or paracrine functions. Its C-terminus contains a cluster of histidine residues which may interact with metal ions. STC2 has 10 of its 15 cysteine residues conserved among stanniocalcin family members and is phosphorylated by casein kinase 2 exclusively on its serine residues. It may play a role in the regulation of renal and intestinal calcium and phosphate transport, cell metabolism, or cellular calcium/phosphate homeostasis.
