ABSTRACT Enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) with elosulfase alfa is the only approved treatment for mucopolysaccharidosis type IVA. This case report delineates the 5‐year outcomes of ERT in two Korean siblings with mucopolysaccharidosis type IVA, with the younger sibling initiating treatment at 0.8 years of age and the older one at 5.4 years.

We identify a female patient with a homozygous nonsense variant (p.Gln38Ter) in the LYSET gene. This is the first western report of a challenging case of an extensive diagnostic odyssey and demonstrates that the LYSET gene must be considered in the differential diagnosis when M6P‐labeled lysosomal enzymes are altered.

Osteoarthropathy in mucopolysaccharidosis type II.
Mucopolysaccharidosis type II (MPS type II, Hunter syndrome) is a rare (~ 1/1500.000), X-linked inherited disorder (affects boys) due to deficiency of the lysosomal enzyme iduronate sulfatase (Xq.28). The complex clinical picture includes osteoarthropathy with a tendency to flexion stiffness and disability.

Iduronate 2‐sulfatase (IDS; purple) is expressed as a precursor protein that goes through multiple steps of maturation, modification, and trafficking to become an active lysosomal enzyme that degrades glycosaminoglycans. Our study shows that the transmembrane ubiquitin ligases RNF13 (orange) and RNF167 (pink) heterodimerize, affecting IDS intracellular
