Enzyme replacement therapies: What is the best option? [PDF]
Despite many beneficial outcomes of the conventional enzyme replacement therapy (ERT), several limitations such as the high-cost of the treatment and various inadvertent side effects including the occurrence of an immunological response against the ...

The Importance of Steroid Uptake and Intracrine Action in Endometrial and Ovarian Cancers
Endometrial and ovarian cancers predominately affect women after menopause, and are more frequently observed in developed countries. These are considered to be hormone-dependent cancers, as steroid hormones, and estrogens in particular, have roles in ...

The Multiple Sulfatase Deficiency Gene Encodes an Essential and Limiting Factor for the Activity of Sulfatases [PDF]
In multiple sulfatase deficiency (MSD), a human inherited disorder, the activities of all sulfatases are impaired due to a defect in posttranslational modification. Here we report the identification, by functional complementation using microcell-mediated chromosome transfer, of a gene that is mutated in MSD and is able to rescue the enzymatic ...

Short SULF1/SULF2 splice variants predominate in mammary tumours with a potential to facilitate receptor tyrosine kinase-mediated cell signalling [PDF]
The relative roles of SULF1 and SULF2 enzymes in tumour growth are controversial, but short SULF1/SULF2 splice variants predominate in human mammary tumours despite their non-detectable levels in normal mammary tissue. Compared with the normal, the level

Post-synthetic regulation of HS structure: the yin and yang of the Sulfs in Cancer
Heparan sulfate (HS) is a complex polysaccharide that takes part in most major cellular processes, through its ability to bind and modulate a very large array of proteins.

Mycobacterium tuberculosis Rv3406 is a type II alkyl sulfatase capable of sulfate scavenging. [PDF]
The genome of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) encodes nine putative sulfatases, none of which have a known function or substrate. Here, we characterize Mtb's single putative type II sulfatase, Rv3406, as a non-heme iron (II) and α-ketoglutarate ...

Computational analysis of bacterial sulfatases and their modifying enzymes [PDF]
The sequence analysis of enzymes that might modify bacterial sulfatases should be useful in the task of identifying the human sulfatase-modifying homologs — enzymes that are defective in the rare inherited disease multi-sulfatase ...
