Özet

Aim: Mucopolysaccharidosis type III B (MPS IIIB) is an autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disease caused by mutations in the NAGLU gene which codes the lysosomal enzyme alpha-N-acetylglucosaminidase. The major symptoms of the disease are cognitive and neurological defects. In this study, the molecular spectrums of 13 MPS IIIB patients were evaluated.
