I presume this is a GAGA-style result, but I cannot find a reference.

          Theorem. A complex manifold is Stein if and only if it embeds into some $mathbbC^N$ as a closed complex submanifold.




          For the "only if" direction, see Hörmander, An Introduction to Complex Analysis in Several variables, Theorem 5.3.9. For the converse, use Cartan B mentioned above. (Added: I don't mean to be too pedantic, but Cartan says that $X$ is Stein iff sheaf cohomology vanishes for coherent analytic coefficients; it is certainly not true otherwise.)

            I believe the reason for this is Cartan's 'Theorem B': for a Stein manifold $mathrmX$ sheaf cohomology vanishes, $mathrmH^n(mathrmX,-)=0$ for $ngeqslant 1$, and this property characterises Stein manifolds among complex manifolds. In the same way affine schemes are characterised among (nice) schemes by cohomology vanishing (this is a theorem of Serre). This comes up in the proof of the cohomological comparison result which is part of GAGA, see for example SGA 1, Exposé XII.
