Popis: Hunter syndrome, or mucopolysaccharidosis type II (MPS II; MIM:309900), is a rare X-linked recessive lysosomal storage disorder caused by defects of the gene coding for iduronate-2-sulfatase (IDS; EC 3.1.6.13) (Bach et al. 1973). IDS catabolizes dermatan sulfate and heparan sulfate in the lysosome. Lack of this enzyme leads to the systemic accumulation of these substances, eventually causing characteristic clinical
