Background
This gene encodes an enzyme that hydrolyzes the terminal alpha-L-iduronic acid residues of two glycosaminoglycans, dermatan sulfate and heparan sulfate. This hydrolysis is required for the lysosomal degradation of these glycosaminoglycans. Mutations in this gene that result in enzymatic deficiency lead to the autosomal recessive disease mucopolysaccharidosis type I (MPS I). [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008],
Function
catalytic activity:Hydrolysis of unsulfated alpha-L-iduronosidic linkages in dermatan sulfate.,disease:Defects in IDUA are the cause of mucopolysaccharidosis type 1H (MPS1H) [MIM:607014]; also known as Hurler syndrome. MPS1H is a severe form of mucopolysaccharidosis type 1, a rare lysosomal storage disease characterized by progressive physical deterioration with urinary excretion of dermatan sulfate and heparan sulfate. Patients with MPS1H usually present, within the first year of life, a combination of hepatosplenomegaly, skeletal deformities, corneal clouding and severe mental retardation. Obstructive airways disease, respiratory infection and cardiac complications usually result in death before 10 years of age.,disease:Defects in IDUA are the cause of mucopolysaccharidosis type 1H/S (MPS1H/S) [MIM:607015]; also known as Hurler-Scheie syndrome. MPS1H/S is a form of mucopolysaccharidosi
