关于 SULT1A2

功能概要

磺基转移酶催化许多激素、神经递质、药物和异生化合物的硫酸盐结合。这些胞质酶的组织分布和底物特异性不同。家族成员之间的基因结构 (外显子的数量和长度) 相似。该基因编码具有热稳定性酶活性的两种苯酚磺基转移酶之一。已经描述了编码相同蛋白质的两种可变剪接变体。[RefSeq 提供，2008 年 7 月]

Sulfotransferase Enzymes catalyze the sulfate conjugation of many Hormones, neurotransmitters, drugs, and xenobiotic compounds. These cytosolic Enzymes are different in their tissue distributions and substrate specificities. The gene structure (number and length of exons) is similar among family members. This gene encodes one of two phenol sulfotransferases with thermostable Enzyme activity. Two alternatively spliced variants that encode the same protein have been described.
