摘要
Posttranslational modifications of proteins such as phosphorylation have been recognized as pivotal modulators of biological activity in healthy and diseased tissues. Sulfation is a key posttranslational modification the role of which in physiology and pathology is only now becoming appreciated. Whereas phosphorylation is central to intracellular signal transduction, sulfation modulates cell-cell and cell-matrix communication. Sulfation involves a class of enzymes known as sulfotransferases, which transfer sulfate from the ATP-like sulfate donor 3'phosphoadenosine-5'phosphosulate to glycoproteins, glycolipids or metabolites. This review focuses on Golgi-localized sulfotransferases, their molecular biology and biochemistry, and strategies towards discovery of sulfotransferase inhibitors that could have potential as therapeutics in inflammation, cancer and infectious diseases.
