SULT4A1, NT (Sulfotransferase 4A1, ST4A1, Brain Sulfotransferase-like Protein, hBR-STL, hBR-STL-1, Nervous System Sulfotransferase, NST, SULT4A1, SULTX3)

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. SULT4A1 isoforms a and b are selectively expressed in brain tissue. Isoform a is the predominant of the two isoforms of this protein. Isoform b includes an alternate segment, compared to isoform a, that causes a frameshift. The resulting protein (isoform b) has a distinct and shorter C-terminus when compared to isoform a.||Applications: |Suitable for use in ELISA and Western Blot.
