Arylsulfatase (EC 3.1.6.1, 'sulfatase, nitrocatechol sulfatase, phenolsulfatase, phenylsulfatase, p-nitrophenyl sulfatase, arylsulfohydrolase, 4-methylumbelliferyl sulfatase, estrogen sulfatase') is a type of sulfatase enzyme with systematic name aryl-sulfate sulfohydrolase. This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction an aryl sulfate + H2O \rightleftharpoons a phenol + sulfate

It catalyses an analogous reaction for sulfonated hexoses. Types include: Arylsulfatase A (also known as "cerebroside-sulfatase") Arylsulfatase B (also known as "N-acetylgalactosamine-4-sulfatase") Steroid sulfatase (formerly known as "arylsulfatase C") ARSC2 ARSD ARSF ARSG ARSH ARSI ARSJ ARSK ARSL (formerly known as "arylsulfatase E", "ARSE")
