DOI: 10.1002/jimd.12298

Abstract: Multiple sulfatase deficiency (MSD) is an ultra‐rare neurodegenerative disorder caused by pathogenic variants in SUMF1. This gene encodes formylglycine‐generating enzyme (FGE), a protein required for sulfatase activation. The clinical course of MSD results from additive… read more here.

Published in 2023 at "EMBO Molecular Medicine"

DOI: 10.15252/emmm.202114837

Abstract: Multiple sulfatase deficiency (MSD, MIM #272200) results from pathogenic variants in the SUMF1 gene that impair proper function of the formylglycine‐generating enzyme (FGE). FGE is essential for the posttranslational activation of cellular sulfatases. MSD patients… read more here.
