Summary
The protein encoded by this gene hydrolyzes cerebroside sulfate to cerebroside and sulfate. Defects in this gene lead to metachromatic leucodystrophy (MLD), a progressive demyelination disease which results in a variety of neurological symptoms and ultimately death. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2010]

Comments

Comment Type Description
Alternative Products Event=Alternative splicing; Named isoforms=2; Name=1; IsoId=P15289-1; Sequence=Displayed; Name=2; IsoId=P15289-2; Sequence=VSP_046190; Note=No experimental confirmation available.;
Catalytic Activity A cerebroside 3-sulfate + H(2)O = a cerebroside + sulfate.
Cofactor Name=Ca(2+); Xref=ChEBI
Disease Leukodystrophy metachromatic (MLD) [MIM
Disease Multiple sulfatase deficiency (MSD) [MIM
Enzyme Regulation Inhibited by phosphate. The phosphate forms a covalent bond with the active site 3-oxoalanine.
Function Hydrolyzes cerebroside sulfate.
Miscellaneous The metal cofactor was first identified as magnesium ion, based on the structure of the recombinant protein, but when purified from human placenta, the protein contains 1 calcium ion per subunit.
Ptm The conversion to 3-oxoalanine (also known as C- formylglycine, FGly), of a serine or cysteine residue in prokaryotes and of a cysteine residue in eukaryotes, is critical for catalytic activity. This post-translational modification is severely defective in multiple sulfatase deficiency (MSD).
Sequence Caution Sequence=AAB03341.1; Type=Erroneous initiation; Evidence= ; Sequence=BAH11167.1; Type=Erroneous initiation; Evidence= ;
Similarity Belongs to the sulfatase family.
Subcellular Location Lysosome.
Subunit Homodimer at neutral pH and homooctamer at acidic pH. Exists both as a single chain of 58 kDa (component A) or as a chain of 50 kDa (component B) linked by disulfide bond(s) to a 7 kDa chain (component C). Interacts with SUMF1. {ECO
