Preclinical use of a clinically-relevant scAAV9/SUMF1 vector for the treatment of multiple sulfatase deficiency [PDF]
Background Multiple Sulfatase Deficiency (MSD) is a rare inherited lysosomal storage disorder characterized by loss of function mutations in the SUMF1 gene that manifests as a severe pediatric neurological disease.

Association between SUMF1 polymorphisms and COVID-19 severity [PDF]
Background Evidence shows that genetic factors play important roles in the severity of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Sulfatase modifying factor 1 (SUMF1) gene is involved in alveolar damage and systemic inflammatory response.

Non‐syndromic retinal dystrophy associated with biallelic variation of SUMF1 and reduced leukocyte sulfatase activity [PDF]
We describe three patients with biallelic SUMF1 variants, reduced sulfatase enzyme activity, and retinal dystrophy. Phenotypes range from mild systemic manifestations to isolated ocular involvement, representing the mildest documented phenotypes associated with multiple sulfatase deficiency.

Sulfatase modifying factor 1 (SUMF1) is associated with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease [PDF]
Background It has been observed that mice lacking the sulfatase modifying factor (Sumf1) developed an emphysema-like phenotype. However, it is unknown if SUMF1 may play a role in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) in humans.

A homozygous missense variant of SUMF1 in the Bedouin population extends the clinical spectrum in ultrarare neonatal multiple sulfatase deficiency [PDF]
Background Multiple sulfatase deficiency (MSD, MIM #272200) is an ultrarare congenital disorder caused by SUMF1 mutation and often misdiagnosed due to its complex clinical presentation.

Late infantile form of multiple sulfatase deficiency with a novel missense variant in the SUMF1 gene: case report and review [PDF]
Background Multiple sulfatase deficiency (MSD) is a rare lysosomal storage disorder caused due to pathogenic variants in the SUMF1 gene. The SUMF1 gene encodes for formylglycine generating enzyme (FGE) that is involved in the catalytic activation of the ...

New mouse models with hypomorphic SUMF1 variants mimic attenuated forms of multiple sulfatase deficiency [PDF]
AbstractMultiple sulfatase deficiency (MSD) is an ultrarare lysosomal storage disorder due to deficiency of all known sulfatases. MSD is caused by mutations in the Sulfatase Modifying Factor 1 (SUMF1) gene encoding the enzyme responsible for the post‐translational modification and activation of all sulfatases.

Unexpected Phenotype Reversion and Survival in a Zebrafish Model of Multiple Sulfatase Deficiency [PDF]
Multiple sulfatase deficiency (MSD) is a rare recessively inherited Mendelian disorder that manifests with developmental delay, neurodegeneration, skeletal deformities, facial dysmorphism, congenital growth retardation, and other clinical signs.

Single-nucleotide polymorphisms in the sulfatase-modifying factor 1 gene are associated with lung function and COPD [PDF]
Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in various genes have been shown to associate with COPD, suggesting a role in disease pathogenesis. Sulfatase modifying factor (SUMF1) is a key modifier in connective tissue remodelling, and we have shown previously

Bone marrow transplantation increases sulfatase activity in somatic tissues in a multiple sulfatase deficiency mouse model [PDF]
Background Multiple Sulfatase Deficiency (MSD) is an ultra-rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by deficient enzymatic activity of all known sulfatases. MSD patients frequently carry two loss of function mutations in the SUMF1 gene, encoding a
