Reaction: 3'-phosphoadenylyl sulfate + a phenol = adenosine 3',5'-bisphosphate + an aryl sulfate
Glossary
dopamine
3'-phosphoadenylyl sulfate = PAPS
Other name(s): phenol sulfotransferase; sulfokinase; 1-naphthol phenol sulfotransferase; 2-naphtholsulfotransferase; 4-nitrocatechol sulfokinase; arylsulfotransferase; dopamine sulfotransferase; p-nitrophenol sulfotransferase; phenol sulfokinase; ritodrine sulfotransferase; PST; 3'-phosphoadenylyl-sulfate:phenol sulfotransferase
Systematic name: 3'-phosphoadenylyl-sulfate:phenol sulfonotransferase
Comments: A number of aromatic compounds can act as acceptors. Organic hydroxylamines are not substrates (cf. EC 2.8.2.9 tyrosine-ester sulfotransferase).
