What does in US "State Treasury office"?

Hi guys,
could you please help me with the understanding of what this office does in the US? I didn't find an direct answer on it. From what I found it seems that every state in the US has this "State treasury"office. A head of this office is called "State treasurer", but what duties this office have? As far as I know, you don't have in the US minister of finance, right? Does it mean that "state treasury"office is some kind of replacement of this minister of finance for every state?
thanks in advance for your help
Best Regards
JCD

The US certainly has a U.S. Treasury Department: http://www.ustreas.gov/ We don't have ministries - we have departments. We don't have ministers, we have Secretaries. There is a Treasury Secretary.
