Steryl-sulfatase (EC 3.1.6.2, arylsulfatase, steroid sulfatase, sterol sulfatase, dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate sulfatase, arylsulfatase C, steroid 3-sulfatase, steroid sulfate sulfohydrolase, dehydroepiandrosterone sulfatase, pregnenolone sulfatase, phenolic steroid sulfatase, 3-beta-hydroxysteroid sulfate sulfatase) is an enzyme with systematic name steryl-sulfate sulfohydrolase.[1][2][3] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

3beta-hydroxyandrost-5-en-17-one 3-sulfate + H2O 3beta-hydroxyandrost-5-en-17-one + sulfate

Also acts on some related steryl sulfates.
