arylsulfatase-C (steryl-3-sulfatase, steroid sulfatase, ASC, STS ARSC1)

Function: - hydrolyzes 3-beta-hydroxy steroid sulfates - conversion of sulfated steroid precursors to estrogens during pregnancy Cofactor: binds 1 Ca+2 per subunit Structure: - homodimer belongs to the sulfatase family Compartment: endoplasmic reticulum membrane Pathology: - defects in STS are the cause of X-linked ichthyosis
