| Primary Identifier | IPR044097 | Type | Domain |
| Short Name | Bds1/SdsA1_MBL-fold |
| description | This entry represents a group of arylsulfatases, including Bds1 from budding yeasts, SdsA1 from Pseudomonas aeruginosa and YjcS from E. coli. SdsA1 is a secreted SDS hydrolase that allows the bacterium to use primary sulfates such as the detergent SDS common in commercial personal hygiene products as a sole carbon or sulfur source [, ]. SdsA1 also contributes to the in vivo virulence of P. aeruginosa by playing a central role in the degradation of mucin []. YjcS is also able to cleave SDS []. Bds1, also known as bacterially-derived sulfatase, is required for use of alkyl- and aryl-sulfates as sulfur sources []. |
