Abstract excerpt
Human mucopolysaccharidosis VII (MPS VII, Sly syndrome) results from a deficiency of beta-glucuronidase (GUS) and has been associated with a wide range in severity of clinical manifestations. To study missense mutant models of murine MPS VII with phenotypes of varying severity, we used targeted mutagenesis to produce E536A and E536Q, corresponding to active-site nucleophile replacements E540A and E540Q in human...
