NCIt definition : Arylsulfatase B (533 aa, 60 kDa) is encoded by the human ARSB gene. This protein
plays a role in the removal of sulfate groups from chondroitin-4-sulfate.;
NCIt note : Convertion of the cysteine at residue 91 of arylsulfatase B to 3-oxoalanine (also
known as C-formylglycine, FGly) is critical for enzymatic catalytic activity. Mutation
of the SUMF1 gene results in misprocessing all sulfatases leading to multiple sulfatase
deficiency. (UniProt);
