Arylsulfatases and neuraminidases modulate engagement of CCR5 by chemokines by removing key electrostatic interactions [PDF]
The chemokine receptor CCR5 is known to exist in cell surface subpopulations that differ in their capacity to engage ligands. One proposed explanation for this phenomenon is the presence of CCR5 species with different levels of post-translational ...

Phylogenetic conservation of arylsulfatases. cDNA cloning and expression of human arylsulfatase B.
A 2.2-kilobase cDNA clone for human arylsulfatase B (ASB) and several genomic clones were isolated and sequenced. The deduced amino acid sequence of 533 amino acids contains a 41-amino acid N-terminal signal peptide and a mature polypeptide of 492 amino acid residues.

Localization of arylsulfatase in Pseudomonas C12B [PDF]
Arylsulfatase was released almost completely from intact cells of Pseudomonas C12B after osmotic shock or after treatment with lysozyme. These results suggest that the enzyme is cell wall associated in this soil isolate.
