Acetyl-CoA:α-glucosaminide N-acetyltransferase (N-acetyltransferase) is a lysosomal membrane enzyme that catalyzes a key step in the lysosomal degradation of heparan sulfate. Its deficiency causes Sanfilippo syndrome type IIIC (Mucopolysaccharidosis type IIIC, MPS IIIC). Here we characterize the promoter region of HGSNAT, the gene encoding N-acetyltransferase, which is located in the pericentromeric region of...
