Abstract
The 100,000 g supernatant fraction of rat liver homogenate contains a sulfotransferase activity which catalyzes the sulfation of minoxidil. Synthetic minoxidil N-O sulfate and the enzyme synthesized product had identical chromatographic characteristics on high pressure liquid chromatography. Minoxidil sulfate, which yields minoxidil when treated with sulfatase, was slowly hydrolyzed in water. Several N-oxides of other heterocycles, including several other pyrimidines, triazines and imidazoles, were also substrates for this sulfotransferase.Entities:
