Other Information

**Key Characteristics** SULT2B1 is a member of the sulfotransferase family, which consists of enzymes that catalyze the transfer of a sulfate group from 3'-phosphoadenosine 5'-phosphosulfate (PAPS) to a variety of substrates, including steroids, xenobiotics, and other small molecules. The SULT2B1 protein is specifically involved in the sulfonation of steroids, which is essential for their metabolism and regulation of various cellular processes. The protein is characterized by its high affinity for PAPS and its ability to catalyze the sulfonation of a wide range of substrates. **Pathways and Functions** The SULT2B1 protein is involved in several key pathways, including: 1. **Cholesterol metabolism**: SULT2B1 is responsible for the sulfonation of cholesterol, which is a critical step in its metabolism and regulation of various cellular processes, including cell growth and differentiation. 2. **Steroid hormone regulation**: The SULT2B1 protein is involved in the sulfonation of steroid hormones, which is essential for their regulation of various cellular processes, including cell growth, differentiation, and metabolism. 3. **Detoxification**: SULT2B1 is involved in the sulfonation of xenobiotics, which is essential for their detoxification and removal from the body. 4. **Cell growth and differentiation**: The SULT2B1 protein is involved in the regulation of cell growth and differentiation, particularly in stratified epithelial cells and respiratory goblet cells. 5. **Metabolism**: SULT2B1 is involved in the sulfonation of various substrates, including steroids, xenobiotics, and other small molecules, which is essential for their metabolism and regulation of various cellular processes. **Clinical Significance** Dysregulation of the SULT2B1 gene has been implicated in various diseases, including: 1. **Cancer**: Overexpression of SULT2B1 has been observed in various types of cancer, including breast, lung, and colon cancer, and is associated with poor prognosis and reduced survival rates. 2. **Metabolic disorders**: Dysregulation of SULT2B1 has been implicated in various metabolic disorders, including obesity, type 2 diabetes, and dyslipidemia. 3. **Neurological disorders**: SULT2B1 has been implicated in the pathogenesis of various neurological disorders, including Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and multiple sclerosis. 4. **Allergic diseases**: Dysregulation of SULT2B1 has been implicated in the pathogenesis of various allergic diseases, including asthma and allergic rhinitis. In conclusion, the SULT2B1 gene plays a critical role in various cellular processes, including metabolism, detoxification, and regulation of cell growth and differentiation. Its dysregulation has been implicated in various diseases, including cancer, metabolic disorders, neurological disorders, and allergic diseases. Further research is needed to fully understand the mechanisms of SULT2B1 and its role in human disease.
