Cytosolic sulfotransferase 18

UniProtKB accession:  Q9C9C9

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  Sulfotransferase that utilizes 3'-phospho-5'-adenylyl sulfate (PAPS) as sulfonate donor to catalyze the sulfate conjugation of desulfo-glucosinolates (dsGSs), the final step in the biosynthesis of the glucosinolate core structure. Preferred substrate are the long-chain desulfo-glucosinolates, 7-methylthioheptyl and 8-methylthiooctyl, derived from methionine. Substrate preference is desulfo-benzyl glucosinolate > desulfo-4-methylthiobutyl glucosinolate > desulfo-6-methylthiohexyl glucosinolate > desulfo-3-methylthiopropyl glucosinolate > desulfo-indol-3-yl methyl glucosinolate > desulfo-singrin > desulfo-3-butenyl glucosinolate.
