Sulfatases and sulfatase modifying factors: an exclusive and promiscuous relationship [PDF]

open access: yesHuman Molecular Genetics, 2005
Sulfatases catalyze the hydrolysis of sulfate ester bonds from a wide variety of substrates. Several human inherited diseases are caused by the deficiency of individual sulfatases, while in patients with multiple sulfatase deficiency mutations in the Sulfatase Modifying Factor 1 (SUMF1) gene cause a defect in the post-translational modification of a ...

Expression and Role of Heparan Sulfated Proteoglycans in Pancreatic Cancer

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2021
Pancreatic cancer is a lethal condition with poor outcomes and an increasing incidence. The unfavourable prognosis is due to the lack of early symptoms and consequent late diagnosis.

SUMF1 enhances sulfatase activitiesin vivoin five sulfatase deficiencies [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemical Journal, 2007
Sulfatases are enzymes that hydrolyse a diverse range of sulfate esters. Deficiency of lysosomal sulfatases leads to human diseases characterized by the accumulation of either GAGs (glycosaminoglycans) or sulfolipids. The catalytic activity of sulfatases resides in a unique formylglycine residue in their active site generated by the post-translational ...

Balanços metabólicos do enxofre em pacientes com leucodistrofia metacromática

open access: yesArquivos de Neuro-Psiquiatria, 1968
Foram estudados os balanços metabólicos do enxofre em dois pacientes com a forma juvenil da leucodistrofia metacromática. Foi verificado, em ambos os casos, um balanço positivo desse metaloide, aparentemente não influenciado pelo tipo de dieta (geral ou ...

Severe neonatal multiple sulfatase deficiency presenting with hydrops fetalis in a preterm birth patient

open access: yesJIMD Reports, 2019
Multiple sulfatase deficiency (MSD) is an ultra‐rare lysosomal storage disorder (LSD). Mutations in the SUMF1 gene encoding the formylglycine generating enzyme (FGE) result in an unstable FGE protein with reduced enzymatic activity, thereby affecting the

Phylogeny of algal sequences encoding carbohydrate sulfotransferases, formylglycine-dependent sulfatases and putative sulfatase modifying factors

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2015
Many algae are rich sources of sulfated polysaccharides with biological activities. The physicochemical/rheological properties and biological activities of sulfated polysaccharides are affected by the pattern and number of sulfate moieties.

Proteoglycan desulfation: a critical step in oncogenesis?

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioscience-Landmark, 2020
Proteoglycans are essential constituents of tissue- and organ microenvironments, modulating both the structural scaffolds that surround cells as well as signaling cues that determine cellular phenotype.

CO2 Fluxes and Soil Responses to Straw and Herbicide in Peanut

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Peanut cultivation plays an important agronomic role in Brazil, especially in rotation with sugarcane, promoting biological nitrogen fixation and improving soil quality. This study aimed to test the hypothesis that the combined use of sugarcane mulch, peanut cultivation, and herbicide application would affect soil CO₂ fluxes, soil chemical ...
