| steryl-sulfatase | <enzyme> Arylsulfatases a and b hydrolyze nitrocatechol sulfate, but p-nitrophenyl sulfate is hydrolyzed only slightly by both enzymes; arylsulfatase c hydrolyzes both p-nitrophenyl sulfate and nitrocatechol sulfate, low substrate specificity located chiefly in microsomes; a and b are found in lysosomes; arylsulfatase a is cerebroside sulfatase and arylsulfatase b is chondro-4-sulfatase Registry number: EC 3.1.6.2 Synonym: arylsulfatase c, dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate sulfatase, steroid sulfatase, estrone sulfate sulfohydrolase, steroid sulphatase, cholesterol sulfatase, dhea sulfatase, 3 beta-hydroxysteroid sulfate sulfatase, estrone sulfate sulfatase, sterylsulfatase, steroid sulfohydrolase, cholesterol sulfate sulfatase, arylsulphatase c (26 Jun 1999) |

| N-sulfoglucosamine-3-sulfatase | <enzyme> Acts on n-acetylglucosamine-3-sulfate and n-sulfoglucosamine-3-sulfate Registry number: EC 3.1.6.15 Synonym: n-substituted glucosamine 3-o-sulphatase (26 Jun 1999) |
| sulfatase | 1. Trivial name for enzymes in EC group 3.1.6, the sulfuric ester hydrolases, which catalyze the hydrolysis of sulfuric esters (sulfates) to the corresponding alcohols plus inorganic sulfate; includes aryl-, sterol, glycol-, chondroitin, choline-, cellulose, cerebroside, and chondro-sulfatases. Synonym: arylsulfatase. (05 Mar 2000) |
| disulfoglucosamine-6-sulfatase | <enzyme> Acts on various n-substituted glucosamine-6-o-sulfates Registry number: EC 3.1.6.11 Synonym: disulphoglucosamine-6-sulphatase, glucosamine o,n-disulfate o-sulfohydrolase, glucosamine sulfatase, n-sulfoglucosamine-6-sulfatase (26 Jun 1999) |
| oligosaccharide 2-O-sulfatase | <enzyme> Hydrolyzes the 2-o-sulfate of the disaccharide 4-deoxy-2-o-sulfato-alpha-l-threo-hex-4-enopyranosyluronic acid-(1-4)-2-deoxy-2-sulfamido-6-o-sulfato-d-glucose from heparin Registry number: EC 3.1.6.- Synonym: flavobacterium heparinum 2-o-sulphatase, heparo-2-o-sulfatase (26 Jun 1999) |
| oligosaccharyl sulfatase | <enzyme> From keyhole limpet; hydrolyzes sulfate esters in asparagine-linked oligosaccharides preferentially to 4-nitrocatechol sulfate Registry number: EC 3.1.6.- (26 Jun 1999) |
| lactate-2-sulfate sulfatase | <enzyme> Shows no activity for (l)-isomer Registry number: EC 3.1.6.- Synonym: d-lactate-2-sulfate sulfatase, d-lactate-2-sulfatase (26 Jun 1999) |
| 3b-hydroxysteroid sulfate sulfatase | <enzyme> An enzyme, found in most mammalian tissues, that is capable of hydrolyzing the sulfate ester bonds of a variety of sulfated sterols; a deficiency of this enzyme will result in X-linked ichthyosis. (05 Mar 2000) |
