Abstract:<p>The biological activation and incorporation of inorganic sulfate proceeds via a process known as sulfurylation. Transfer of a sulfuryl moiety from the activated sulfate donor, 3’-phosphoadenosine-5’-phosphosulfate (PAPS), to hydroxy-containing substrates by human phenol sulfotransferases (SULT1 family) alters substrate solubility and charge to affect the metabolism of endogenous metabolites, xenobiotics, and drugs. Current methods to monitor SULT1 activity in living cells primarily rely on radiolabeli… Show more
