Abstract

A method of detecting sulfotransferase activity including conducting a first reaction comprising, measuring free phosphate produced by the first reaction, and comparing the measured free phosphate to a free phosphate standard curve or equation or to a free phosphate level obtained in a separate reaction. The first reaction includes combining the sulfotransferase, Golgi-resident PAP-phosphatase (gPAPP), a 5′-nucleotidase, a substrate of the sulfotransferase, and 3′-phosphoadenosine-5′-phosphosulfate (PAPS) under conditions to produce 3′-phosphoadenosine-5′-phosphate (PAP).
