Steroid sulfotransferases [PDF]

open access: yesEndocrine Reviews, 1996
Human dehydroepiandrosterone sulfotransferase (DHEA-ST) catalyzes the sulfonation of DHEA, cholesterol, pregnenolone as well as androsterone. RNA blot analysis shows two DHEA-ST mRNA species of 1.3 and 1.8 kb that are expressed similarly in liver and adrenals.

Complementary Role of GlcNAc6ST2 and GlcNAc6ST3 in Synthesis of CL40-Reactive Sialylated and Sulfated Glycans in the Mouse Pleural Mesothelium

open access: yesMolecules, 2022
Sialyl 6-sulfo Lewis X (6-sulfo sLeX) and its derivative sialyl 6-sulfo N-acetyllactosamine (LacNAc) are sialylated and sulfated glycans of sialomucins found in the high endothelial venules (HEVs) of secondary lymphoid organs. A component of 6-sulfo sLeX

Structure of mouse cytosolic sulfotransferase SULT2A8 provides insight into sulfonation of 7α-hydroxyl bile acids

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2021
: Cytosolic sulfotransferases (SULTs) catalyze the transfer of a sulfonate group from the cofactor 3’-phosphoadenosine 5’-phosphosulfate to a hydroxyl (OH) containing substrate and play a critical role in the homeostasis of endogenous compounds ...

Coelenterazine sulfotransferase from Renilla muelleri.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2022
The luciferin sulfokinase (coelenterazine sulfotransferase) of Renilla was previously reported to activate the storage form, luciferyl sulfate (coelenterazine sulfate) to luciferin (coelenterazine), the substrate for the luciferase bioluminescence ...

Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea—Resveratrol, Sulfotransferases and Sulfatases—A Long and Turbulent Journey from Intestinal Absorption to Target Cells

open access: yesMolecules, 2023
For nearly 30 years, resveratrol has attracted the scientific community’s interest. This has happened thanks to the so-called French paradox, that is, the paradoxically low mortality from cardiovascular causes in the French population despite a diet rich

Arginase Flavonoid Anti-Leishmanial in Silico Inhibitors Flagged against Anti-Targets

open access: yesMolecules, 2016
Arginase, a drug target for the treatment of leishmaniasis, is involved in the biosynthesis of polyamines. Flavonoids are interesting natural compounds found in many foods and some of them may inhibit this enzyme.

The Emerging Roles of Heparan Sulfate 3-O-Sulfotransferases in Cancer

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2019
Alteration in the expression of heparan sulfate (HS)-modifying enzymes has been frequently observed in cancer. Consequently, dysregulation of the HS biosynthetic machinery results in dramatic changes in the HS structure, thereby impacting a range of ...

The influence of serum sterol sulfotransferase, ANGPTL8, and SDC1 on liver function in patients with intrahepatic cholestasis during pregnancy [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Medical Biochemistry
Background: To explore the relationships between serum Sterol Sulfotransferase, Recombinant Angiopoietin Like Protein 8 (ANGPTL8), and Recombinant Syndecan (SDC1) and liver function in patients with intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP), as well as

The schistosome enzyme that activates oxamniquine has the characteristics of a sulfotransferase

open access: yesMemorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2006
Available evidence suggests that the antischistosomal drug oxamniquine is converted to a reactive ester by a schistosome enzyme that is missing in drug-resistant parasites.

Metabolic Engineering of Escherichia coli for Enhanced Production of Naringenin 7-Sulfate and Its Biological Activities

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Flavonoids are one of the predominant groups of plant polyphenols, and these compounds have significant effects on human health and nutrition. Sulfated flavonoids have more favorable attributes compared to their parent compounds such as increased ...
