The reaction converts methyl L-tyrosine methyl ester to L-tyrosine methyl ester 4-sulfate by transferring a sulfate group from the cofactor 3'-phosphoadenosine-5'-phosphosulfate (PAPS) and giving adenosine 3',5'-bisphosphate as a byproduct. The enzyme was characterised from rat liver.[1][2][3]

This enzyme is a transferase, specifically a sulfotransferase, which transfer sulfur-containing groups. The systematic name of this enzyme class is 3'-phosphoadenylyl-sulfate:L-tyrosine-methyl-ester sulfotransferase. Other names in common use include aryl sulfotransferase IV, and L-tyrosine methyl ester sulfotransferase.[4]
