Abstract excerpt
Mucopolysaccharidosis type VI (MPSVI, Maroteaux-Lamy syndrome) is a lysosomal storage disease for which multiple clinical phenotypes have been described. A deficiency of the enzyme arylsulfatase B (ASB, N-acetylgalactosamine-4-sulfatase) is the cause of this autosomal recessively inherited disorder. The genotypes of two patients with an intermediate form of MPSVI have been determined by polymerase chain reaction...
