The multi-protein family of sulfotransferases in plants: Composition, occurrence, substrate specificity and functions
All members of the sulfotransferase (SOT, EC 2.8.2.-) protein family transfer a sulfuryl group from the donor 3´-phosphoadenosine 5´-phosphosulfate (PAPS) to an appropriate hydroxyl group of several classes of substrates. The primary structure of these enzymes is characterized by a histidine residue...
