Disease relevance of asst

Kinetic mechanism and identification of the active site tyrosine residue in Enterobacter amnigenus arylsulfate sulfotransferase [1].
A procedure has been developed for the overexpression and purification of milligram quantities of the Klebsiella K-36 arylsulfate sulfotransferase (ASST) [2].
The gene encoding the Enterobacter amnigenus AR-37 arylsulfate sulfotransferase (ASST) was cloned, sequenced, and expressed in Escherichia coli NM522 [3].
Cloning, expression and purification of arylsulfate sulfotransferase from eubacterium a-44 [4].

High impact information on asst

Bacterial arylsulfate sulfotransferase (ASST) catalyzes the transfer of a sulfate group from a phenyl sulfate ester to a phenolic acceptor [1].
A gene-encoding arylsulfate sulfotransferase (ASST) was cloned from a Klebsiella K-36 genomic library [5].

Chemical compound and disease context of asst

A gene (astA) encoding arylsulfate sulfotransferase (ASST), which transfers a sulfate group from phenolic sulfate esters to phenolic acceptors, was cloned from a Eubacterium A-44 genomic library [4].

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of asst

Molecular cloning of the arylsulfate sulfotransferase gene and characterization of its product from Enterobacter amnigenus AR-37 [3].
