NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
The protein encoded by this gene hydrolyzes cerebroside sulfate to cerebroside and sulfate. Defects in this gene lead to metachromatic leucodystrophy (MLD), a progressive demyelination disease which results in a variety of neurological symptoms and ultimately death. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2010]
Uniprot Description
ARSA: Hydrolyzes cerebroside sulfate. Defects in ARSA are a cause of leukodystrophy metachromatic (MLD). MLD is a disease due to a lysosomal storage defect. It is characterized by intralysosomal storage of cerebroside-3-sulfate in neural and non-neural tissues, with a diffuse loss of myelin in the central nervous system. Progressive demyelination causes a variety of neurological symptoms, including gait disturbances, ataxias, optical atrophy, dementia, seizures, and spastic tetraparesis. Three forms of the disease can be distinguished according to the age at onset: late- infantile, juvenile and adult. Arylsulfatase A activity is defective in multiple sulfatase deficiency (MSD). A clinically and biochemically heterogeneous disorder caused by the simultaneous impairment of all sulfatases, due to defective post-translational modification and activation. It combines features of individual sulfatase deficiencies such as metachromatic leukodystrophy, mucopolysaccharidosis, chondrodysplasia punctata, hydrocephalus, ichthyosis, neurologic deterioration and developmental delay. Arylsulfatase A activity is impaired in multiple sulfatase deficiency due to mutations in SUMF1. SUMF1 mutations result in defective post-translational modification of ARSA at residue Cys- 69 that is not converted to 3-oxoalanine. Belongs to the sulfatase family.

Product Notes
The Guinea Pig ASA arsa (Catalog #AAA725947) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA725947 ELISA Kit recognizes Guinea Pig ASA. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "aryl sulfatase A, ELISA Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
