" /> Mucopolysaccharidosis, type II - CISMeF





Preferred Label : Mucopolysaccharidosis, type II;

Symbol : MPS2;

CISMeF acronym : MPS2;

Type : Phenotype, molecular basis known;

Alternative titles and symbols : Hunter syndrome; Mps II; Iduronate 2-sulfatase deficiency; Ids deficiency; Sulfoiduronate sulfatase deficiency; Sids deficiency;

Description : Mucopolysaccharidosis II is a rare X-linked recessive disorder caused by deficiency of the lysosomal enzyme iduronate sulfatase, leading to progressive accumulation of glycosaminoglucans in nearly all cell types, tissues, and organs. Patients with MPS II excrete excessive amounts of chondroitin sulfate B (dermatan sulfate) and heparitin sulfate (heparan sulfate) in the urine (McKusick, 1972; Wraith et al., 2008).;

Inheritance : X-linked recessive;

Molecular basis : Caused by mutation in the iduronate-2-sulfatase gene (IDS, 309900.0001);

Laboratory abnormalities : Iduronate sulfatase deficiency in fibroblasts, amniocytes and white blood cells; Dermatan and heparan sulfate excretion in urine;

Prefixed ID : #309900;
