Gene: SULT1B1
Alternate names for this Gene: ST1B1|ST1B2|SULT1B2
Gene Summary: Sulfotransferase enzymes catalyze the sulfate conjugation of many hormones, neurotransmitters, drugs, and xenobiotic compounds. These cytosolic enzymes are different in their tissue distributions and substrate specificities. The gene structure (number and length of exons) is similar among family members. However, the total genomic length of this gene is greater than that of other SULT1 genes.
Gene is located in Chromosome: 4
Location in Chromosome : 4q13.3
Description of this Gene: sulfotransferase family 1B member 1
Type of Gene: protein-coding
