Structural highlights
Function
SOT12_ARATH Sulfotransferase that utilizes 3'-phospho-5'-adenylyl sulfate (PAPS) as sulfonate donor to catalyze the stereospecific sulfate conjugation of 24-epibrassinosteroids. Preferred substrates are 24-epicathasterone and 6-deoxo-24-epicathasterone. Low activity with 22-deoxy-24-epiteasterone. No activity with 24-epimers catasterone and brassinolide. Sulfonates salicylic acid. May be involved in detoxification. Enhances plant response to pathogen infection and contributes to long distance signaling in systemic acquired resistance (SAR).[1] [2]
