Abstract excerpt
Mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) disorders are heterogeneous and caused by deficient lysosomal degradation of glycosaminoglycans, resulting in distinct but sometimes overlapping phenotypes. Molecular analysis was performed for a total of 355 MPS patients with MPSI (n = 15), MPSII (n = 218), MPSIIIA (n = 86), MPSIIIB (n = 20), MPSIVA (n = 6) or MPSVI (n = 10). This analysis revealed 104 previously unreported mutations:...
