## Communicated by Francesco Giannelli Mucopolysaccharidosis type I1 (MI'S 11) is an X-chromosomal storage disorder due to deficiency of the lysosomal enzyme iduronate-2-sulfatase
Hunter syndrome (Mucopolysaccharidosis type II, MPS2) is an X-linked recessively inherited disease caused by a deficiency of iduronate 2 sulfatase (IDS). In this study, we investigated mutations of the IDS gene in 25 Korean Hunter syndrome patients. We identified 20 mutations, of which 13 mutations
Hunter syndrome is a rare, X-linked, recessively inherited disease affecting approximately 1 in 132,000 males. The disease is caused by the inability to degrade dermatan sulphate and heparan sulphate due to mutations in the iduronate-2-sulphatase gene (IDS). The mutations causing the disorder are he
