Gene information for PAPSS1 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID9061
Official gene symbolPAPSS1
Full name3'-phosphoadenosine 5'-phosphosulfate synthase 1
Aliases,ATPSK1,PAPSS,SK1,
Gene summaryThree-prime-phosphoadenosine 5-prime-phosphosulfate (PAPS) is the sulfate donor cosubstrate for all sulfotransferase (SULT) enzymes (Xu et al., 2000 [PubMed 10679223]). SULTs catalyze the sulfate conjugation of many endogenous and exogenous compounds, including drugs and other xenobiotics. In humans, PAPS is synthesized from adenosine 5-prime triphosphate (ATP) and inorganic sulfate by 2 isoforms, PAPSS1 and PAPSS2 (MIM 603005).[supplied by OMIM]
