General description

Sequential action of sulfatase from Helix pomatia and β-O-glucosidase from Caldicellulosiruptor saccharolyticus on glucosinolates allows synthesis of thiohydroximates. Sulfatase from Helix pomatia hydrolyzes β-naphthyl sulfate much faster than α-naphthyl sulfate.

Application

Sulfatase from Helix pomatia is often used to remove sulfate groups from carbohydrates.

Unit Definition

One unit will hydrolyze 1.0 μmole of p-nitrocatechol sulfate per hour at pH 5.0 at 37 °C (30 min assay).

Thiohydroximates comprise a diverse class of compounds important in both biological and industrial chemistry. Their syntheses are generally limited to simple alkyl and aryl compounds with few stereocenters and a narrow range of functional groups. We hypothesized that sequential action

Often used to remove sulfate groups from carbohydrates, the regulatory properties of the aryl sulfatase from Helix pomatia remain little characterized. As many hydrolytic enzymes utilize exogenous metal ions in catalysis, the effect of various divalent metal ions on the

It has been found that sulfatase from Helix pomatia hydrolyzes beta-naphthyl sulfate much faster than alpha-naphthyl sulfate; e.g., at pH 7.8, while the former is readily hydrolyzed, the latter undergoes no appreciable hydrolysis. Kinetic investigations of both enzymatic and acid
