Sulfatases: Critical Enzymes for Algal Polysaccharide Processing
Microbial sulfatases are important biocatalysts in the marine environment where they play a key role in the catabolic biotransformation of abundant sulphated algal polysaccharides. The sulphate esters decorating algal polysaccharides, such as carrageenan,

Multiple Sulfatase Deficiency [PDF]
Multiple sulfatase deficiency is an inherited disorder characterized by a deficiency of several sulfatases and the accumulation of sulfatides, glycosaminoglycans, sphingolipids, and steroid sulfates in tissues and body fluids. The clinical manifestations represent the summation of two diseases: late infantile metachromatic leukodystrophy and ...

Late infantile form of multiple sulfatase deficiency with a novel missense variant in the SUMF1 gene: case report and review [PDF]
Background Multiple sulfatase deficiency (MSD) is a rare lysosomal storage disorder caused due to pathogenic variants in the SUMF1 gene. The SUMF1 gene encodes for formylglycine generating enzyme (FGE) that is involved in the catalytic activation of the ...

Detection of bacterial sulfatase activity through liquid- and solid-phase colony-based assays [PDF]
Bacterial arylsulfatases are crucial to biosynthesis in many microorganisms, as bacteria often utilize aryl sulfates as a source of sulfur. The bacterial sulfatases are associated with pathogenesis and are applied in many areas such as industry and ...

Preparation and purification of Flavobacterium heparinum chondroitinases AC and B by hydrophobic interaction chromatography [PDF]
Flavobacterium heparinum is a soil bacterium that produces several mucopolysaccharidases such as heparinase, heparitinases I and II, and chondroitinases AC, B, C and ABC. The purpose of the present study was to optimize the preparation of F.

Sulfatase 2 inhibition sensitizes triple-negative breast cancer cells to paclitaxel through augmentation of extracellular ATP [PDF]
The highest incidence and cancer-related mortality rate among women worldwide is due to breast cancer. Triple-negative breast cancers (TNBC) are associated with more inferior outcomes than other breast cancers because of their progressive nature and the ...

Sulfatase modifying factor 2 as a predictive biomarker for urothelial carcinoma [PDF]
Sulfatases mediate the sulfation level of cell-surface heparan sulfates to regulate signal transduction, thereby promoting cancer progression. Sulfatase activation requires a sulfatase modifying factor (SUMF) for the modification of its catalytic domain.

Bone marrow transplantation increases sulfatase activity in somatic tissues in a multiple sulfatase deficiency mouse model [PDF]
Background Multiple Sulfatase Deficiency (MSD) is an ultra-rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by deficient enzymatic activity of all known sulfatases. MSD patients frequently carry two loss of function mutations in the SUMF1 gene, encoding a
