c.1898C>G/p.Ser633Trp Mutation in Alpha-L-Iduronidase: Clinical and Structural Implications.

Mucopolysaccharidosis type I is a rare autosomal recessive genetic disease caused by deficient activity of α-L-iduronidase. As a consequence of low or absent activity of this enzyme, glycosaminoglycans accumulate in the lysosomal compartments of multiple cell types throughout the body. Mucopolysaccharidosis type I has been classified into 3 clinical subtypes, ranging from a severe Hurler form to the more attenuated Hurler-Scheie and Scheie phenotypes.
