Abstract
The phenol-preferring sulfotransferases aryl sulfotransferase IV and N -hydroxyarylamine sulfotransferase catalyze sulfate conjugation of N-h ydroxy-2-acetylaminofluorene, a metabolite capable of causing hepatoca rcinogenesis in rats. We utilized published cDNA sequences of these su lfotransferases to type the progeny of two multilocus crosses and dete rmined that the genes, aryl sulfotransferase (Stp) and N-hydroxyarylam ine sulfotransferase (Stp2), map to positions on mouse chromosomes 7 a nd 17.
