The structural gene coding for human arylsulfatase B, ARSB, is assigned to 5p11----5qter by analysis of somatic cell hybrids isolated from two separate fusions of human fibroblasts carrying a translocation involving chromosome 5 with the Chinese hamster cell line a3.

Background: Iduronate-2-sulfatase (IDS) deficiency (MPS II; Hunter syndrome) is a disorder that exhibits peripheral and CNS pathology. The blood brain barrier (BBB) prevents systemic enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) from alleviating CNS pathology. We aimed to enable brain delivery of systemic ERT by using molecular BBB-Trojans targeting endothelial transcytosis receptors.

Background: Multiple sulfatase deficiency (MSD) is an exceptionally rare neurodegenerative disorder due to the absence or deficiency of 17 known cellular sulfatases. The activation of all these cellular sulfatases is dependent on the presence of the formylglycine-generating enzyme, which is encoded by the SUMF1 gene. Disease-causing homozygous or compound heterozygous variants in SUMF1 result in MSD.

(1) Background: Most rare disease patients endure long delays in obtaining a correct diagnosis, the so-called "diagnostic odyssey", due to a combination of the rarity of their disorder and the lack of awareness of rare diseases among both primary care professionals and specialists. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) techniques that target genes underlying diverse phenotypic traits or groups of diseases are helping reduce these delays; (2) Methods: We used a combination of biochemical (thin-layer chromatography and high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry), NGS (resequencing gene panels) and splicing assays to achieve a complete diagnosis of three patients with suspected metachromatic leukodystrophy, a neurologic lysosomal disorder; (3) Results: Affected individuals in each family were homozygotes for harmful variants in the gene, one of them novel (c.854+1dup, in family 1) and the other already described (c.

Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) is the most common type of thyroid cancer, and patients with the BRAF mutation often exhibit aggressive tumor behavior. Here, we identified Arylsulfatase I (ARSI) as a gene whose expression was significantly upregulated in BRAF PTC and was associated with poor prognosis. High ARSI expression correlated with advanced disease stage, BRAF mutation, and worse overall survival in PTC patients.

Background/aim: Breast cancer is mostly affected by estrogen, which promotes proliferation, tumorigenesis, and cancer progression. Estrogen sulfotransferase (SULT1E1) catalyzes sulfation to inactivate estrogens, whereas steroid sulfatase (STS) catalyzes estrogen sulfate hydrolysis to activate estrogens in breast cancer cells. Three major organosulfur compounds in garlic (Allium sativum L.
