Gene information for SULT1C2 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID6819
Official gene symbolSULT1C2
Full namesulfotransferase family, cytosolic, 1C, member 2
Aliases,ST1C1,ST1C2,SULT1C1,humSULTC2,
Gene summarySulfotransferase enzymes catalyze the sulfate conjugation of many hormones, neurotransmitters, drugs, and xenobiotic compounds. These cytosolic enzymes are different in their tissue distributions and substrate specificities. The gene structure (number and length of exons) is similar among family members. This gene encodes a protein that belongs to the SULT1 subfamily, responsible for transferring a sulfo moiety from PAPS to phenol-containing compounds. Two alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described for this gene. [provided by RefSeq]
