Mucopolysaccharidosis Type II and the G374sp Mutation [PDF]
Molecular Syndromology, 2013 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.
