Sulfotransferase (ST) enzymes play an important role in the biotransformation and detoxification of endogenous and xenobiotic compounds, and comprise a multigene family. In mammals, STs are classified into hydroxysteroid ST and phenol ST families (Weinshilboum et al., 1997). The phenol ST family is further subdivided into phenol ST and estrogen ST subfamilies. In a previous paper, we assigned two rat hydroxysteroid ST genes, Sth1 and Sth2, to the same chromosome region of 1q21.3→q22.1 by fluorescence in situ hybridization (Nagai et al., 1996). In the present study, we determined the gene loci of two rat phenol STs. Rat phenol ST, ST1A1 (Sult1a1) cDNA encodes 291 amino acids and the expressed enzyme catalyzes sulfation of phenols, catecholamines and minoxidil (Ozawa et al., 1993). Another rat phenol ST, ST1C1 (Sult1c1) cDNA encodes 304 amino acids and the expressed enzyme shows high ST activity toward phenols and a potent carcinogen, Nhydroxy-2-acetylaminofluorene (Nagata et al., 1993). These cDNAs are 51% identical in amino acid sequence. In order to determine their chromosome locations, we carried out fluorescence in situ hybridization using biotinylated cDNA probes, which were prepared by PCR. Materials and methods
