Disease relevance of SULT1C2

  • Recombinant human SULT1C sulfotransferases 1 and 2, expressed in Escherichia coli and purified to near electrophoretic homogeneity, were shown to cross-react with the antiserum against the rat liver SULT1C1 sulfotransferase and exhibited sulfonating activities with N-OH-2AAF as substrate [1].
  • While the increased expression of SULT1C1 in malignant tissue seems to reflect tumor dedifferentiation, our finding of unspliced SULT1A2 mRNA in non-malignant tissue offers additional aspects regarding the search for breast cancer risk factors [2].
 

High impact information on SULT1C2

 

Biological context of SULT1C2

 

Anatomical context of SULT1C2

  • Because SULT1C1 is present in the adult thyroid, intra-thyroidal sulfation of thyroid hormones and their metabolites might occur [8].
 

Associations of SULT1C2 with chemical compounds

 

Other interactions of SULT1C2

  • SULT1C1 and SULT1C2 were approximately 21 and 10 kb in length, respectively [6].
  • With the exception of SULT1B1, SULT1C1, and SULT4A1, all of the human SULTs studied catalyzed the sulfate conjugation of CEs [10].
  • The amino acid sequence of the protein encoded by the cDNA was 62% identical with that encoded by the rat ST1C1 cDNA and included signature sequences that are conserved in all cytosolic SULT enzymes [5].
  • Activities were markedly lower with SULT1E1, 1A1 and 2A1, and were negligible with SULT1C1, 2B1a, 2B1b and 4A1 [11].
  • The experiments using anti-rat ST1C1 antibody and nucleotide probes for human ST1C1 showed no detectable band in Western blots and an mRNA-detecting method with polymerase chain reaction, respectively, in human liver samples [12].
