Sequential action of sulfatase from Helix pomatia and β-O-glucosidase from Caldicellulosiruptor saccharolyticus on glucosinolates allows synthesis of thiohydroximates. Sulfatase from Helix pomatia hydrolyzes β-naphthyl sulfate much faster than α-naphthyl sulfate.
Application:
Sulfatase from Helix pomatia is often used to remove sulfate groups from carbohydrates.
