Identification
Name:Phosphoadenosine phosphosulfate
Description3'-Phosphoadenosine-5'-phosphosulfate is a key intermediate in the formation by living cells of sulfate esters of phenols, alcohols, sulfated polysaccharides, and simple esters, such as choline sulfate. It is formed from a sulfate ion and ATP in a two-step process. This compound also is an important intermediate in the process of sulfur fixation in plants and microorganisms.
