protein coding gene
Automated Description
Enables aryl sulfotransferase activity. Involved in sulfur compound metabolic process. Located in cytosol. Is expressed in ASJL and ASJR. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including autosomal recessive congenital ichthyosis 14; gastrointestinal system cancer (multiple); lung cancer (multiple); reproductive organ cancer (multiple); and urinary bladder cancer. Orthologous to several human genes including SULT1A1 (sulfotransferase family 1A member 1); SULT1A2 (sulfotransferase family 1A member 2); and SULT1A3 (sulfotransferase family 1A member 3).
WB Description
ssu-1 encodes, by alternative splicing, two isoforms of a cytosolicalcohol sulfotransferase that interacts in the ASJ amphid neurons with thestomatins UNC-1 and UNC-24; the longer SSU-1 isoform is required fornormal anesthetic sensitivity and unc-1 phenotypes; ssu-1(fc73) suppressesthe anesthetic sensitivity and uncoordinated phenotypes of unc-1 andunc-24 mutants; ssu-1(fc73), along with daf-12, suppresses the syntheticconstitutive dauer-formation phenotype of fc83;unc-24(e138) mutants; ssu-1suppression is rescued by transgenic expression of SSU-1 in the ASJneurons alone, implying that sulfation is required for an endocrinefunction; SSU-1 protein sulfates 4-nitrophenol and 2-naphthol substrates,and bisphenol A, but not monoamines or hydroxysteroids; SSU-1 iscytosolic, but its activity is not detectable in cytosolic extracts; ssu-1is strongly expressed in embryos, growing larvae, and dauer larvae; ssu-1expression is increased in daf-2; by homology with othersulfotransferases, SSU-1 may link sulfates to the alcohol group of smallmolecules as part of detoxification or signal transduction.
