Mucopolysaccharidosis IIIA (MPS IIIA; Sanfilippo syndrome) is an autosomal recessive lysosomal disorder caused by the deficiency of sulfamidase (EC 3.10.1.1), required for the degradation of the mucopolysaccharide heparan sulfate. The molecular defects of 26 unrelated Spanish MPS IIIA patients were recently reported by our group. Here we describe the heterologous expression, using a baculovirus system, of the...
