SULT2B1

Gene
SULT2B1
Protein
Sulfotransferase family cytosolic 2B member 1
Organism
Homo sapiens
Length
365 amino acids
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 like DHEA. Isoform 1 preferentially sulfonates cholesterol, and isoform 2 avidly sulfonates pregnenolone but not cholesterol. Plays a role in epidermal cholesterol metabolism and in the regulation of epidermal proliferation and differentiation (PubMed:28575648).
Similarity
Belongs to the sulfotransferase 1 family.

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. Plays a role in epidermal cholesterol metabolism and in the regulation of epidermal proliferation and differentiation (By similarity).
Similarity
Belongs to the sulfotransferase 1 family.
