Gene information for SLC35B2 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID347734
Official gene symbolSLC35B2
Full namesolute carrier family 35, member B2
Aliases,PAPST1,SLL,UGTrel4,
Gene summarySulfotransferases (e.g., SULT4A1; MIM 608359) use an activated form of sulfate, 3-prime-phosphoadenosine 5-prime-phosphosulfate (PAPS), as a common sulfate donor for sulfation of glycoproteins, proteoglycans, and glycolipids in the endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi apparatus. SLC35B2 is located in the microsomal membrane and transports PAPS from the cytosol, where it is synthesized, into the Golgi lumen (Kamiyama et al., 2003 [PubMed 12716889]).[supplied by OMIM]
