In the first step of PAPS biosynthesis, ATP and sulfate react to form adenylyl sulfate (APS) and pyrophosphate (PPi), catalyzed by the ATP sulfurylase domains of the bifunctional enzymes PAPS synthases 1 and 2 (PAPSS1 and 2). PAPSS2 is essential for the sulfation of glycosaminoglycan chains in proteoglycans, a necessary post translational modification. Defective PAPSS2 results in undersulfation of the glycosaminoglycan chains in proteoglycans which causes spondyloepimetaphyseal dysplasia Pakistani type (SEMD PA; MIM:612847), a bone disease characterized by epiphyseal dysplasia with mild metaphyseal abnormalities. Mutations resulting in SEMD PA include S438*, T48R and R329* (Ahmad et al. 1998, ul Haque et al. 1998, Noordam et al. 2009).
