(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID153642
Official gene symbolARSK
Full namearylsulfatase family, member K
Aliases,DKFZp313G1735,TSULF,
Gene summarySulfatases (EC 3.1.5.6), such as ARSK, hydrolyze sulfate esters from sulfated steroids, carbohydrates, proteoglycans, and glycolipids. They are involved in hormone biosynthesis, modulation of cell signaling, and degradation of macromolecules (Sardiello et al., 2005 [PubMed 16174644]).[supplied by OMIM]
