OverviewNCBI Gene
Sulfotransferase enzymes catalyze the sulfate conjugation of many hormones, neurotransmitters, drugs, and xenobiotic compounds. These cytosolic enzymes are different in their tissue distributions and substrate specificities. The gene structure (number and length of exons) is similar among family members. This gene encodes a protein that transfers a sulfo moiety to and from estrone, which may control levels of estrogen receptors. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis
Seroatlas reads SULT1E1 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against SULT1E1 could matter depends on whether native SULT1E1 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
SULT1E1 is annotated as predominantly intracellular. Intracellular proteins are common autoantibody markers, becoming visible to the immune system after cell injury or altered processing, but are usually markers of disease rather than direct drivers.
Annotation status
The present source text does not explicitly label SULT1E1 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
