Abstract
The interindividual variability in drug response is a major issue in clinical practice and in drug development. Sulfoconjugation is an important Phase II reaction catalyzed by cytosolic sulfotransferases (SULTs), playing a major role in homeostatic functions, xenobiotic detoxification, and carcinogen bioactivation. SULT display wide interindividual variability, explained only partially by genetic variation, suggesting that other non-genetic, epigenetic, and environmental influences could be major determinants of variability in SULT activity. This review focuses on the factors known to influence SULT variability in expression and activity and the available evidence regarding the impact of SULT variability on drug response.
