背景信息

**Background of SULT4A1 Recombinant Protein**

Sulfotransferase 4A1 (SULT4A1) is a member of the cytosolic sulfotransferase family, which catalyzes the transfer of a sulfonate group from 3'-phosphoadenosine 5'-phosphosulfate (PAPS) to hydroxyl or amine groups of substrates. Unlike other SULT isoforms involved in drug metabolism or hormone regulation, SULT4A1 is predominantly expressed in the brain, suggesting a specialized role in neurological processes. However, its precise physiological function remains unclear, partly due to the lack of identified endogenous substrates. Studies propose its potential involvement in sulfating neurosteroids, neurotransmitters, or other small molecules critical for neuronal signaling or protection.

The recombinant SULT4A1 protein is engineered using heterologous expression systems, such as *E. coli* or mammalian cells, to enable biochemical and structural studies. Its recombinant form allows researchers to investigate enzyme kinetics, substrate specificity, and interactions with cofactors or inhibitors. Structural analyses reveal that SULT4A1 shares a conserved sulfotransferase fold but exhibits unique sequence divergences, possibly explaining its distinct substrate preferences. Notably, SULT4A1 shows limited homology to other SULTs, with high conservation in primates, hinting at evolutionary specialization in higher-order brain functions.

Interest in SULT4A1 also stems from its association with neuropsychiatric and neurodegenerative disorders. Altered expression or genetic variants of SULT4A1 have been linked to schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and Alzheimer’s disease, though mechanistic insights are lacking. Recombinant SULT4A1 serves as a tool to explore these connections, potentially aiding biomarker discovery or therapeutic targeting. Current research focuses on identifying its substrates, elucidating regulatory pathways, and clarifying its role in brain health and disease. Challenges include its instability *in vitro* and the need for optimized assays to probe its activity in complex biological systems.
