Some characteristics of estrogen sulfotransferases from guinea pig liver and chorion were compared. Liver cytosolic activity was stimulated 10-fold by 25 mM monothiolglycerol and 2-fold by 15 mM MgCl2 or CaCl2, similar to that found previously for chorion. Liver and chorion activities were each eluted as a single peak from fast protein liquid chromatography (FPLC) gel filtration columns at apparent molecular weights of 52,300 and 50,000, respectively. Each was eluted during FPLC anion exchange under single, wide peaks with low recoveries. Liver sulfotransferase activity was eluted from Affi-gel Blue columns in the form of several peaks whereas the chorion activity behaved as a single species. The enzymes from both tissues, when partially purified by gel filtration followed by anion exchange, acted upon estrone and estradiol at the 3-position but activity toward dehydroepiandrosterone and testosterone was minimal or undetectable. Affi-gel Blue chromatography followed by FPLC gel filtration resulted in increases in specific activity of 26- and 90-fold for liver and chorion, respectively. Both enzymes were eluted from agarose-hexane-adenosine 3',5'-diphosphate (PAP-agarose) columns as single peaks. Average increases in specific activity for this column step were 40-fold and 96-fold for the entire eluted peaks of liver and chorion enzyme, respectively. Individual fractions from the PAP-agarose column indicated a specific activity increase of as much as 60-fold for liver and 208-fold for chorion. These latter were markedly unstable and it was not possible to obtain further purification by additional steps. Velocity versus substrate concentration curves for the partially purified enzymes showed complex kinetics, particularly with estradiol as substrate.
