flavonol 3-sulfotransferase activity
Definition
Target type: molecularfunction
Catalysis of the reaction: 3'-phospho-5'-adenylyl sulfate + quercetin = adenosine 3',5'-diphosphate + H+ + quercetin 3-sulfate. [EC:2.8.2.25, RHEA:13453]
Flavonol 3-sulfotransferase activity is a type of enzyme activity that catalyzes the transfer of a sulfate group from a donor molecule, typically 3'-phosphoadenosine 5'-phosphosulfate (PAPS), to the 3-hydroxyl group of flavonol molecules. Flavonols are a class of flavonoids, which are plant secondary metabolites with diverse biological activities, including antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anticancer properties. The sulfation of flavonols by flavonol 3-sulfotransferases can significantly alter their properties, including their solubility, stability, and biological activity. This modification can impact their interactions with other molecules, their transport within the plant, and their ability to exert their biological effects. Flavonol 3-sulfotransferase activity is involved in a variety of plant processes, including the regulation of flavonoid biosynthesis, the defense against pathogens and herbivores, and the response to environmental stresses. The specific role of this activity varies depending on the plant species and the context. In some cases, flavonol sulfation can lead to the detoxification of flavonoids, while in other cases it can enhance their activity.'
