Sulfotransferase family 3A, member 1 pseudogene (SULT3A1 pseudogene (no common canonical abbreviation outside genebank identifiers))

This locus, ENSG00000223593, represents a pseudogene related to the sulfotransferase family 3A, member 1 (Sult3a1). Sulfotransferases are a large protein family that catalyze the transfer of a sulfuryl group to target molecules, but this gene is a pseudogene and does not encode an active enzyme. There is no evidence of cellular function or therapeutic relevance for this locus in human biology[2]. For completeness, functional sulfotransferases in humans do participate in the metabolism of steroids, fatty acids, and xenobiotics, but pseudogene entries like this one do not produce active proteins[4]. ENSG00000223593 is a non-functional pseudogene related to the sulfotransferase family, and it is not considered a therapeutic target, nor does it have roles in disease, biological function, molecular interaction, or drug response[2].
