FAMILY
  • sulfate adenyltransferase family
  • CATEGORY enzyme
    SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION     intracellular
    intracellular,cytoplasm,cytosolic
    text
  • PAPSS1 was predominantly nuclear, whereas PAPSS2 localised mainly within the cytoplasm
  • basic FUNCTION
  • catalyzing the activation of sulfate in two steps, synthesis of adenosine 5'-phosphosulfate and phosphorylation of APS to generate 3'-phospho-adenosine 5'-phosphosulfate (PAPS)
  • may have a important role in skeletogenesis during postnatal growth
  • may be having a important role of the gene product for cartilage growth and development
  • might regulate osteoblast alkaline phosphates activity and cell mineralization, probably through Smads signal pathways

    constitutional germinal mutation     loss of function
    PAPSS2 deficiency is a monogenic adrenocortical cause of androgen excess
    constitutional       loss of function
    causes androgen excess via impaired DHEA sulfation, and is associated with a phenotype resembling polycystic ovary syndrome
