Mucopolysaccharidosis type IVA (MPS IVA; Morquio syndrome) is a lysosomal storage disorder caused by a deficiency in the activity of the lysosomal hydrolase N-acetylgalactosamine-6-sulfatase (GALNS). MPS IVA patients can present with severe myelopathy, hearing loss, heart valve involvement, short trunk/dwarfism and corneal clouding.

Intellectual and neurological functioning in Morquio syndrome (MPS IVa)
AbstractMucopolysaccharidosis type IVa (MPS IVa, Morquio syndrome OMIM #253000) is a lysosomal storage disease caused by deficiency in N‐acetylgalactosamine‐6‐sulfatase (GALNS, EC 3.1.6.4; encoded by GALNS gene at 16q24.3). Unlike other MPS disorders involving excessive heparan and dermatan sulfate, Morquio syndrome has not been associated with ...

Morquio syndrome (MPS IVA) and hypophosphatasia in a Hutterite kindred
American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, 1985AbstractA patient is described who has Morquio syndrome (MPS IVA). He is a member of the Hutterite Brethren and genealogic analysis discloses a high inbreeding coefficient for the proband. The proband's sibship is segregating two autosomal recessive disorders, ie, MPS IVA and infantile hypophosphatasia.

Evaluation of Urinary Keratan Sulfate Disaccharides in Mps Iva Patients Using UPLC–MS/MS
Bioanalysis, 2016Glycosaminoglycan analysis for the diagnosis of Morquio patients has been daunting due to lack of sensitivity/specificity of the dimethylmethylene blue-based spectrophotometry methodology, routinely used by several clinical laboratories. MS methods have been devised for quantification of keratan sulfate for Morquio patients, but some used tributylamine
