Abstract excerpt
Mucopolysaccharidosis type IVA (MPS IVA) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder resulting from the deficiency of N-acetylgalactosamine-6-sulfate sulfatase (GALNS) caused by pathogenic variants in the GALNS gene. A systematic analysis for genotype-phenotype correlation is essential due to hundreds of variants generating different levels of residual GALNS activity and causing a wide degree of clinical manifestation...
