Function | Sulfotransferase that utilizes 3'-phospho-5'-adenylyl sulfate (PAPS) as sulfonate donor to catalyze the sulfate conjugation of many hormones, neurotransmitters, drugs and xenobiotic compounds. Sulfonation increases the water solubility of most compounds, and therefore their renal excretion, but it can also result in bioactivation to form active metabolites. Sulfates hydroxysteroids like DHEA. Isoform 1 preferentially sulfonates cholesterol, and isoform 2 avidly sulfonates pregnenolone but not cholesterol. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12145317, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9799594}. |
Subcellular Location | Cytoplasm. Microsome. Nucleus. Note=Phosphorylation of Ser-348 is required for translocation to the nucleus. |
Tissue Specificity | Expressed highly in placenta, prostate and trachea and lower expression in the small intestine and lung. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:9799594}. |
