SulfAtlas, the sulfatase database: state of the art and new developments [PDF]

open access: goldNucleic Acids Res., 2022
SulfAtlas (https://sulfatlas.sb-roscoff.fr/) is a knowledge-based resource dedicated to a sequence-based classification of sulfatases. Currently four sulfatase families exist (S1–S4) and the largest family (S1, formylglycine-dependent sulfatases) is ...

Identification of a Sulfatase that Detoxifies Glucosinolates in the Phloem-Feeding Insect Bemisia tabaci and Prefers Indolic Glucosinolates

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Cruciferous plants in the order Brassicales defend themselves from herbivory using glucosinolates: sulfur-containing pro-toxic metabolites that are activated by hydrolysis to form compounds, such as isothiocyanates, which are toxic to insects and other ...

Steroid hormones sulfatase inactivation extends lifespan and ameliorates age-related diseases

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Aging and fertility are two interconnected processes. From invertebrates to mammals, absence of the germline increases longevity. Here we show that loss of function of sul-2, the Caenorhabditis elegans steroid sulfatase (STS), raises the pool of sulfated

Natural history of multiple sulfatase deficiency: Retrospective phenotyping and functional variant analysis to characterize an ultra‐rare disease

open access: hybridJournal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, 2020
Multiple sulfatase deficiency (MSD) is an ultra‐rare neurodegenerative disorder caused by pathogenic variants in SUMF1. This gene encodes formylglycine‐generating enzyme (FGE), a protein required for sulfatase activation.

Drug screening identifies tazarotene and bexarotene as therapeutic agents in multiple sulfatase deficiency

open access: yesEMBO Molecular Medicine, 2023
Multiple sulfatase deficiency (MSD, MIM #272200) results from pathogenic variants in the SUMF1 gene that impair proper function of the formylglycine‐generating enzyme (FGE).

Multiple Sulfatase Deficiency: A Disease Comprising Mucopolysaccharidosis, Sphingolipidosis, and More Caused by a Defect in Posttranslational Modification

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2020
Multiple sulfatase deficiency (MSD, MIM #272200) is an ultra-rare disease comprising pathophysiology and clinical features of mucopolysaccharidosis, sphingolipidosis and other sulfatase deficiencies. MSD is caused by impaired posttranslational activation

Insights into Hunter syndrome from the structure of iduronate-2-sulfatase

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
Hunter syndrome is a rare but devastating childhood disease caused by mutations in the IDS gene encoding iduronate-2-sulfatase, a crucial enzyme in the lysosomal degradation pathway of dermatan sulfate and heparan sulfate.

The Significance of the Sulfatase Pathway for Local Estrogen Formation in Endometrial Cancer

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2017
Endometrial cancer (EC) is the most common estrogen-dependent gynecological malignancy in the developed World. To investigate the local formation of estradiol (E2), we first measured the concentrations of the steroid precursor androstenedione (A-dione ...
