Sulfotransferase 1C2 (SULT1C2) is a cytosolic enzyme member of the Sulfotransferase 1 family. Human SULT1C2 is primarily expressed in the adult stomach, kidney and thyroid gland, and in the fetal kidney and liver. SULT1C2 catalyzes the sulfate conjugation of drugs, xenobiotic compounds, hormones, and neurotransmitters. SULT1C2 may be involved in the activation of carcinogenic hyroxylamines. It shows activity towards p-nitrophenol and N-hydroxy-2-acetylamino-fluorene (N-OH-2AAF).
