Mucolipidosis III

Multiple Sulfatase Deficiency

Clinical Information

The mucopolysaccharidoses are a group of inherited lysosomal storage disorders (LSDs), each with a distinctive phenotype and a progressive course due to a specific enzyme deficiency. These enzymes are involved in the degradation of specific glycosaminoglycans.

Methodology

Quantifies level of each enzyme via the 4-methylumbelliferyl substrate
