Mucopolysaccharidosis type VI (MPS VI, Maroteaux-Lamy syndrome, McKusick #253200) is a lysosomal storage disorder that is caused by a deficiency in the lysosomal exohydrolase N-acetylgalactosamine-4-sulphatase (4-sulphatase, EC 3.1.6.1). We report a patient with no obvious clinical signs of MPS VI that has 5% of normal 4-sulphatase catalytic capacity. This patient represents an index case for the attenuated end of the MPS VI clinical spectrum. (c) 2005 Published by Elsevier Inc.
