General annotation (Comments)

Function

Sulfotransferase that utilizes 3'-phospho-5'-adenylyl sulfate (PAPS) as sulfonate donor to catalyze the sulfate conjugation of many hormones, neurotransmitters, drugs and xenobiotic compounds. Sulfonation increases the water solubility of most compounds, and therefore their renal excretion, but it can also result in bioactivation to form active metabolites. Sulfates hydroxysteroids such as dehydroepiandrosterone. Isoform 1 is required for production of cholesterol sulfate essential for normal skin development whereas isoform 2 produces pregnenolone sulfate, an essential neurosteroid during development of the central nervous system.

Catalytic activity

3'-phosphoadenylyl sulfate + an alcohol = adenosine 3',5'-bisphosphate + an alkyl sulfate.

Subcellular location

Cytoplasm By similarity. Microsome By similarity.

Tissue specificity

Expressed at high levels in epididymis, intestine and uterus, and low levels in brain and hypothalamus. Isoform 2 is most prominent in the brain and spinal cord, with modest expression in the lung, skin and spleen. Isoform 1 is most prominently expressed in skin and small intestine, with modest expression in muscle and prostate. Ref.1 Ref.2

Developmental stage

Isoform 1 and isoform 2 are expressed from stages E8.5-E19 embryo. Ref.2

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the sulfotransferase 1 family.

Alternative products

This entry describes 2 isoforms produced by alternative splicing. [Align] [Select]
Isoform 1 (identifier: O35400-1)

Also known as: SULT2B1b; B;

This isoform has been chosen as the 'canonical' sequence. All positional information in this entry refers to it. This is also the sequence that appears in the downloadable versions of the entry.
Isoform 2 (identifier: O35400-2)

Also known as: SULT2B1a; A;

The sequence of this isoform differs from the canonical sequence as follows:
     1-20: MDGPQPRALWSSSEKNVSEM → MTSRDCCCGGVEVDLLLRWTHGAQRKDTPHWRVNEGPCDSCPPPWSSLHVPFPSF
Note: No experimental confirmation available.
