Official Full Name: sulfotransferase family 1C member 2
Also known as: ST1C1; ST1C2; SULT1C1; humSULTC2
Sulfurtransferases catalyze the sulfate conjugation of many hormones, neurotransmitters, drugs and heterogeneous compounds. These cytoplasmic enzymes differ in tissue distribution and substrate specificity. Gene structure (number and length of exons) was similar among family members. This gene encodes a protein belonging to the SULT1 subfamily responsible for the transfer of the thiol moiety from PAPS to phenolic compounds. Two alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been described for this gene.
