Gene:
sulfotransferase family, cytosolic, 1B, member 1
Gene ID:
195552
Symbol:
SULT1B1
Species:
1000
Description:
Sulfotransferase 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. However, the total genomic length of this gene is greater than that of other SULT1 genes.
