Preferred Label : Mannosidosis, beta a, lysosomal;
Symbol : MANSB;
CISMeF acronym : MANSB;
Type : Phenotype, molecular basis known;
Alternative titles and symbols : BETA-MANNOSIDOSIS; Beta-mannosidase deficiency; Lysosomal beta-mannosidase deficiency;
Description : Beta-mannosidosis is an autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disease of glycoprotein
catabolism caused by a deficiency of lysosomal beta-mannosidase activity. The most
severely affected patients show developmental delay and mental retardation, but there
are differing levels of severity and some patients may have comparatively mild disease
(Bedilu et al., 2002) The disorder was first described in goats (Jones and Dawson,
1981), who have a more severe neurodegenerative disorder than that seen in humans.;
Inheritance : Autosomal recessive;
Molecular basis : Caused by mutation in the beta-mannosidase gene (MANBA, 609489.0001);
Laboratory abnormalities : Decreased beta-mannosidase activity in plasma, fibroblasts, and leukocytes; Increased urinary disaccharides (mannosyl-N-acetylglucosamine);
