Descriptor fosfoadenosina fosfosulfato
Scope note: 3'-Fosfoadenosina-5'-fosfosulfato. Producto intermediario clave en la formación de ésteres sulfato de fenoles, alcoholes, esteroides, polisacáridos sulfatados, y ésteres simples, como el sulfato de colina en las células vivas. Se forma a partir de iones sulfato y ATP en un proceso en dos etapas. Este compuesto es también importante en el proceso de fijación de azufre por plantas y microorganismos.

Scope note: 3'-Phosphoadenosine-5'-phosphosulfate. Key intermediate in the formation by living cells of sulfate esters of phenols, alcohols, steroids, sulfated polysaccharides, and simple esters, such as choline sulfate. It is formed from sulfate ion and ATP in a two-step process. This compound also is an important step in the process of sulfur fixation in plants and microorganisms.
