✦ Synopsis


This paper describes a rapid and an efficient procethe ''active sulfate'' used as a primary donor of sulfuryl dure for the enzymatic synthesis of 3 -phosphoadenosgroups (0SO 3 ) in biological systems (1). Sulfotransferine 5-phospho[ 35 S]sulfate ([ 35 S]PAPS). [ 35 S]PAPS was ases are a family of enzymes that catalyze the transfer synthesized by incubating ATP and a carrier-free [ 35 S]of the sulfuryl group from PAPS to a variety of acceptor Na 2 35 SO 4 with ATP sulfurylase, a recombinant APS kisubstrates including xenobiotics, proteins, glycolipids, nase and inorganic pyrophosphatase. The transfer of steroids, and glycosaminoglycans (2-6). Since the dis-35 SO 4 group from [ 35 S]Na 2 SO 4 to [ 35 S]PAPS proceeded covery of active sulfate, numerous chemical and enzymore efficiently in the presence of an ATP-regeneratmatic attempts have been made to synthesize both ing system composed of pyruvate kinase and phosadenosine phosphosulfate (APS) and PAPS. In biologiphoenol pyruvate. About 90% of the radioactivity prescal systems, PAPS is synthesized through the coordient in the starting material [ 35 S]Na 2 SO 4 was transnated action of three enzymes as outlined below (7).

ferred to [ 35 S]PAPS within a 2-h reaction incubation. The reaction products were applied to a Mono Q column, and [ 35 S]PAPS was eluted by a step-wise gradient Academic Press, Inc.
