Common_Name | Dopamine 3-O-sulfate |
Description | Dopamine 3-O-sulfate is a sulfonated form of dopamine. In human blood circulation endogenous dopamine exists predominantly in the sulfated form and dopamine sulfate accounts for more than 90% of all dopamine. Dopamine-3-O-sulfate predominates in human plasma, with concentrations about 10-fold higher than those of the regioisomer dopamine-4-O-sulfate. Sulfonation is the most important metabolic pathway that interferes with the binding of dopamine to its receptors. The origins of this preponderance for Dopamine-3-O-sulfate have not been determined, although there has been speculation about the contribution of the specificity of transport proteins and/or arylsulfatases. It has also been proposed to depend on the regiospecificity of the metabolizing enzyme(s) for the 3-hydroxy group of dopamine. It is believed that the vast majority of circulating dopamine sulfate originates in the upper gastrointestinal tract, and indeed that is the main site of expression of the enzyme responsible for its formation. Aryl sulfotransferase (SULT1A3, EC 2.8.2.1) is an enzyme that catalyzes the sulfonation of many endogenous and exogenous phenols and catechols; the most important endogenous substrate is dopamine. SULT1A3 strongly favors the 3-hydroxy group of dopamine over the 4-hydroxy group and may indeed be primarily responsible for the difference between the circulating levels of dopamine sulfates in human blood.
