Arylsulfatase is a type of sulfatase
Sulfatase
Sulfatases are enzymes of the esterase class that catalyze the hydrolysis of sulfate esters. These may be found on a range of substrates, including steroids, carbohydrates and proteins. Sulfate esters may be formed from various alcohols and amines...

Types include:
  • Arylsulfatase A
    Arylsulfatase A
    Arylsulfatase A is an enzyme that breaks down cerebroside 3-sulfate into cerebroside and sulfate. In humans, arylsulfatase A is encoded by the ARSA gene.-External links:* *...

  • Arylsulfatase B
    Arylsulfatase B
    Arylsulfatase B is an enzyme associated with mucopolysaccharidosis VI.Arylsulfatase B is among a group of arylsulfatase enzymes present in the lysosomes of the liver, pancreas, and kidneys of animals. The purpose of the enzyme is to hydrolyze sulfates in the body. ARSB does this by breaking down...
