SULT2B1 (Sulfotransferase 2B1; also ST2B1b and alcohol sulfotransferase) is a 45-48kD member of the sulfotransferase 1 family of enzymes.
SULT2B1 is widely expressed, being found in platelets, stratum granulosum keratinocytes, breast and prostatic epithelium, and syncytiotrophoblast cells.
SULT2B1 catalyzes the sulfonation of DHEA, a precursor for sex steroids, and cholesterol, which supports stratification of the epidermis.
Human SULT2B1 is 365aa in length.
There are PAPS binding sites between aa70-75 and 147-155, a myristoylation motif between aa255-259, and a Pro-rich region between aa305-364 that may extend enzyme half-life.
There is one 43kD splice form (ST2B1a) that shows an eight aa substitution for aa1-23.
It is expressed in fetal brain and generates pregnenolone sulfate, a steroid that modulates neurotransmitters.
Full-length human SULT2B1b shares only 71% aa identity with mouse SULT2B1.
