Description | Phosphoadenosine-5'-phosphosulfate, also known as paps or 3'-phosphonato-5'-adenylyl sulfate, is a member of the class of compounds known as purine ribonucleoside 3',5'-bisphosphates. Purine ribonucleoside 3',5'-bisphosphates are purine ribobucleotides with one phosphate group attached to 3' and 5' hydroxyl groups of the ribose moiety. Phosphoadenosine-5'-phosphosulfate is slightly soluble (in water) and an extremely strong acidic compound (based on its pKa). Phosphoadenosine-5'-phosphosulfate can be found in a number of food items such as cloves, abiyuch, cocoa bean, and jute, which makes phosphoadenosine-5'-phosphosulfate a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products. |
