ISSN: 1573-2665Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000Topics: MedicineNotes: Summary The low abundance lysosomal enzymeN-acetylgalactosamine 4-sulphatase (4-sulphatase) has been quantified using a microimmunopurification step and a monoclonal-based ELISA detection system. The assay is similar in principle to a two-site ELISA but uses a single monoclonal antibody against one epitope to bind 4-sulphatase in two separate assay steps. The sensitivity of this assay is sufficient to allow the quantification of 4-sulphatase in human cultured skin fibroblasts derived from normal controls and patients deficient in 4-sulphatase activity (mucopolysaccharidosis type VI or Maroteaux-Lamy syndrome). The results obtained suggest a range of mucopolysaccharidosis type VI or 4-sulphatase deficient mutants, from those expressing little or no quantifiable 4-sulphatase protein to those examples with quantifiable levels of 4-sulphatase protein which is enzymically inactive. Phenotypic variability in patients with a 4-sulphatase deficiency may therefore be partially attributed to a range of protein expressions. The method should allow the determination of 4-sulphatase specific activity in mucopolysaccharidosis type VI patients.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

ISSN: 1573-2665Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000Topics: MedicineNotes: Summary A method combining immune capture and enzyme detection by fluorochemistry has been developed for the diagnostic assay of N-acetylgalactosamine-4-sulphatase (4-sulphatase). The procedure uses a monoclonal antibody 4-S 4.1 to immunoadsorb 4-sulphatase specifically from complex protein samples containing other sulphatases, and 4-methylumbelliferyl sulphate to detect captured 4-sulphatase. The assay provides an accurate and simple method for the diagnosis of Maroteaux-Lamy syndrome (Mucopolysaccharidosis type VI).Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL:
