چکیده

Aryl sulfotransferase IV (EC 2.8.2.1), purified to homogeneity from male rat liver, catalyzes the sulfation of a variety of substituted phenols, including catecholamines, tyrosine esters, and peptides containing NH2-terminal tyrosine residues. An investigation of the mechanism of the enzyme was carried out using 2-chloro-4-nitrophenol as a model substrate. Kinetic, inhibition, and binding studies with aryl sulfotransferase IV are all consistent with a random rapid equilibrium Bi Bi kinetic mechanism with two dead end product inhibitor complexes. Studies of the chemical mechanisms of the enzyme-catalyzed reaction demonstrate that electron-withdrawing substituents decrease the maximal velocity of phenol sulfation. The maximal velocity of the reaction correlates with Hammett sigma p- constants (rho = -0.25). Evidence is presented for the mechanism by which adenosine 3',5'-bisphosphate and aryl sulfotransferase catalyze the transfer of sulfate from 2-chloro-4-nitrophenyl sulfate to other phenols.

Localisation of aryl sulfotransferase expression in human tissues using hybridisation histochemistry and immunohistochemistry.

To date, the laboratory has cloned seven unique human sulfotransferases; five aryl sulfotransferases (HAST1, HAST2, HAST3, HAST4 and HAST4v), an estrogen sulfotransferase and a dehydroepiandrosterone sulfotransferase. The cellular distribution of human aryl sulfotransferases in human hepatic and extrahepatic tissues has been determined using the techniques of hybridization histochemistry and im...

Characterization and expression of hepatic sulfotransferase involved in the metabolism of N-substituted aryl compounds.

An aryl sulfotransferase, whose cDNA was isolated from the rat liver library, was found to catalyze bioactivation of minoxidil through N-O-sulfation and N-sulfation of a carcinogenic heterocyclic amine, IQ, by expression in COS-1 cells. cDNA of a human ortholog also was isolated and characterized as a major minoxidil-activating enzyme in human liver. Another group of aryl sulfotransferases cata...

Influence of phenylalanines 77 and 138 on the stereospecificity of aryl sulfotransferase IV.

Aryl sulfotransferase (AST) IV (also named tyrosine-ester sulfotransferase and ST1A1) is a major phenol sulfotransferase in the rat, and it catalyzes the sulfation of many drugs, carcinogens, and other xenobiotics that contain phenol, benzylic alcohol, N-hydroxy arylamine, and oxime functional groups. Previous work discovered a stereospecificity of AST IV toward the enantiomers of 1,2,3,4-tetra...

2-Acetylaminofluorene-mediated alteration in the level of liver arylsulfotransferase IV during rat hepatocarcinogenesis.

Rat liver cytosolic sulfotransferase activity forms the highly reactive sulfuric acid ester of N-hydroxy-2-acetylaminofluorene (N-OH-2AAF), an ultimate carcinogen in 2-acetylaminofluorene (2AAF) hepatocarcinogenesis. A previous report demonstrated that 2AAF-induced liver hyperplastic nodules displayed a persistent loss of cytosolic N-OH-2AAF sulfotransferase activity following a hepatocarcinoge...

Modeling the Binding and Inhibition Mechanism of Nucleotides and Sulfotransferase Using Molecular Docking

Phenol sulfotransferase (PST) catalyzes sulfuryl group transfer from adenosine 3 -phosphate 5 -phosphosulfate (PAPS) to a variety of nucleophilic acceptors in biological systems. Physiological sulfation by PAPS results in the production of adenosine 3 ,5 -diphosphate (PAP). PAP may become a strong inhibitor or cofactor for the physiological or the transfer reactions, respectively. Several nucle...
