Abstract
The sulphatase A (aryl-sulphate sulphohydrolase, EC 3.1.6.1) of ox liver hydrolyses adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cyclic AMP) to adenosine 5'-phosphate at an optimum pH of approx. 4.3, close that for the hydrolysis of cerebroside sulphate, a physiological substrate for sulphatase A. The Km is 11.6 mM for cyclic AMP. On polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis sulphatase A migrates as a single protein band which coincides with both the arylsulphatase and phosphodiesterase activities, suggesting that these are due to a single protein. Cyclic AMP competitively inhibits the arylsulphatase activity of sulphatase A, showing that both activities are associated with a single active site on the enzyme. sulphatase A also hydrolyses guanosine 3',5'-monophosphate, but not uridine 3',5'-monophosphate nor adenosine 2',3'-monophosphate.
