Also known as KIAA1001
Summary
ARSG (arylsulfatase G, HGNC:24102) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 17q24.2, encoding Arylsulfatase G (Q96EG1). Displays arylsulfatase activity at acidic pH towards artificial substrates, such as p-nitrocatechol sulfate and also, but with a lower activity towards p-nitrophenyl sulfate and 4-methylumbelliferyl sulfate.
The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the sulfatase enzyme family. Sulfatases hydrolyze sulfate esters from sulfated steroids, carbohydrates, proteoglycans, and glycolipids. They are involved in hormone biosynthesis, modulation of cell signaling, and degradation of macromolecules. This protein displays arylsulfatase activity at acidic pH, as is typical of lysosomal sulfatases, and has been shown to localize in the lysosomes. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene.

Arylsulfatase G — Q96EG1 (reviewed: Q96EG1)
Alternative names: N-sulfoglucosamine-3-sulfatase
All UniProt accessions (2): Q96EG1, J9JIG6
UniProt curated annotations — full annotation on UniProt →
Function. Displays arylsulfatase activity at acidic pH towards artificial substrates, such as p-nitrocatechol sulfate and also, but with a lower activity towards p-nitrophenyl sulfate and 4-methylumbelliferyl sulfate. Catalyzes the hydrolysis of the 3-sulfate groups of the N-sulfo-D-glucosamine 3-O-sulfate units of heparin.
Subcellular location. Lysosome.
Tissue specificity. Widely expressed, with very low expression in brain, lung, heart and skeletal muscle.
Post-translational modifications. N-glycosylated. N-glycosylated with both high mannose and complex type sugars. The conversion to 3-oxoalanine (also known as C-formylglycine, FGly), of a serine or cysteine residue in prokaryotes and of a cysteine residue in eukaryotes, is critical for catalytic activity. The 63-kDa precursor undergoes proteolytic processing in two steps, yielding two fragments in the first step (apparent molecular masses of 44 and 18 kDa). In the second step, the 44-kDa fragment is processed further to the 34- and 10-kDa chains. The 10-kDa chain is a cleavage product of the 44-kDa fragment but linked to the 18-kDa chain through a disulfide bridge.
Disease relevance. Usher syndrome 4 (USH4) [MIM:618144] A form of Usher syndrome, a genetically heterogeneous condition characterized by the association of retinitis pigmentosa with sensorineural deafness. Age at onset and differences in auditory and vestibular function distinguish different types of Usher syndrome. USH4 is characterized by late onset of retinitis pigmentosa and usually late-onset of progressive sensorineural hearing loss without vestibular involvement. USH4 inheritance is autosomal recessive. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Activity regulation. Inhibited by phosphate. The phosphate forms a covalent bond with the active site 3-oxoalanine.
Cofactor. Binds 1 Ca(2+) ion per subunit.
Similarity. Belongs to the sulfatase family.
