Sult2a5 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Predicted to enable 3'-phosphoadenosine 5'-phosphosulfate binding activity and sulfotransferase activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including 3'-phosphoadenosine 5'-phosphosulfate metabolic process; ethanol catabolic process; and sulfation. Predicted to be located in cytosol. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in prostate cancer. Orthologous to human SULT2A1 (sulfotransferase family 2A member 1).

Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Sult2a5 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
