2.8.2.37

Accepted name:

trehalose 2-sulfotransferase

Reaction:

3′-phosphoadenylyl sulfate + α,α-trehalose = adenosine 3′,5′-bisphosphate + 2-O-sulfo-α,α-trehalose

Glossary:

2-O-sulfo-α,α-trehalose = trehalose 2-sulfate = α-D-glucopyranosyl 2-O-sulfo-α-D-glucopyranoside

Other name(s):

Stf0 sulfotransferase; 3′-phosphoadenylyl-sulfate:α,α-trehalose 2-sulfotransferase

Systematic name:

3′-phosphoadenylyl-sulfate:α,α-trehalose 2-sulfonotransferase

Comments:

The sulfation of trehalose in the bacterium Mycobacterium tuberculosis is required for the biosynthesis of sulfolipid-1.
