Mammalian protein found in Homo sapiens
Arylsulfatase A (or cerebroside-sulfatase ) is an enzyme that breaks down sulfatides , namely cerebroside 3-sulfate into cerebroside and sulfate . In humans, arylsulfatase A is encoded by the ARSA gene .[ 5] [ 6]
Clinical significance [ edit ] A deficiency in Arylsulfatase A is associated with metachromatic leukodystrophy , an autosomal recessive disease.[ 7] Multiple sulfatase deficiency (MSD) is also associated with the ARSA gene.[ 8]
Arylsulfatase A is inhibited by phosphate, which forms a covalent bond with the active site 3-oxoalanine.[ 9]
