Scope note

  • An arylsulfatase that catalyzes the hydrolysis of the 4-sulfate groups of the N-acetyl-D-galactosamine 4-sulfate units of chondroitin sulfate and dermatan sulfate. A deficiency of this enzyme is responsible for the inherited lysosomal disease, Maroteaux-Lamy syndrome (MUCOPOLYSACCHARIDOSIS VI). EC 3.1.6.12.

History note

  • 99; for ARYLSULFATASE B use CHONDRO-4-SULFATASE 1975-98; use N-ACETYLGALACTOSAMINE-4-SULFATASE (NM) 1988-98
