SGSH gene

Descriptions
The SGSH gene is located on 17q25.3 and encodes N-sulphoglucosamine sulphohydrolase, a lysosomal enzyme that contributes to the lysosomal degradation of heparan sulfate. A mutation in the SGSH gene is associated with mucopolysaccharidosis type IIIA (MPSIIIA), also known as Sanfilippo syndrome A. MPSIIIA is characterized by severe central nervous system degeneration, and clinical symptoms usually become apparent between ages 2 and 6, with progressive neurologic degeneration between 6 and 10 years of age and death by age 30.

The SGSH gene (N-sulfoglucosamine sulfohydrolase) [HGNC Gene ID:10818] is located on chromosome 17q25.3. This gene encodes one of several enzymes involved in the lysosomal degradation of heparan sulfate. Mutations in this gene are associated with Sanfilippo syndrome A, one type of the lysosomal storage disease mucopolysaccaridosis III, which results from impaired degradation of heparan sulfate. Transcripts of varying sizes have been reported but their biological validity has not been determined.
