Description

The HGSNAT gene [HGNC Gene ID: 26527] is located on chromosome 8 between positions 11.21 and 11.1. This gene encodes the heparan-alpha-glucosaminide N-acetyltransferase enzyme, also known as N-acetyltransferase, which is present in lysosomes and involved in the degradation of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs). Over 50 mutations have been found in the HGSNAT gene and are known to cause mucopolysaccharidosis type IIIC (MPS IIIC). The mutations lead to a reduction or elimination of functional N-acetyltransferase.[MedlinePlus Gene: HGSNAT] Source: Regenstrief LOINC
