Sult1a1 Gene Summary [Rat]
Enables 3'-phosphoadenosine 5'-phosphosulfate binding activity; aryl sulfotransferase activity; and identical protein binding activity. Involved in several processes, including 4-nitrophenol metabolic process; estrogen metabolic process; and sulfation. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including breast cancer; 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); SULT1A3 (sulfotransferase family 1A member 3); and SULT1A4 (sulfotransferase family 1A member 4).

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 rat Sult1a1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
