Mucopolysaccharidosis Type II and the G374sp Mutation [PDF]
Mucopolysaccharidosis type II (MPS II), also known as Hunter syndrome, is a rare, X-linked disease caused by a deficiency of the lysosomal enzyme iduronate-2-sulfatase, which catalyses a step in the catabolism of glycosaminoglycans resulting in accumulation of heparan and dermatan sulfate in many organs and tissues.

Prenatal Mucopolysaccharidosis II (Hunter): A Pathogenetic Study [PDF]
A prenatal diagnosis of Mucopolysaccharidosis II (M. Hunter) was made early in a pregnancy at risk in a family with one affected child. An affected fetus was diagnosed on the basis of an abnormal incorporation and degradation of 35SO4 in 35SO4-labeled mucopolysaccharides in cultured amniotic cells. Dermatan sulfate and heparin sulfate concentrations in
