Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Disclosed herein are novel methods, assays and kits useful for the diagnosis and monitoring of subjects with mucopolysaccharidoses (MPS), The methods, assays and kits are particularly useful for detecting the presence of one or more glycosaminoglycans which correlate to MPS and its severity in a variety of biological samples.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A method for determining the concentration of one or both of dermatan sulfate (DS) and heparin sulfate (HS) in a sample, the method comprising (a) treating a sample with at least one of chondroitinase B and one or more heparineses, (b) combining a serine protease shown in FIG. 7 or 8 a labeled substrate for said serine protease, an inhibitor of said serine protease, and the sample under conditions and for a time suitable for cleavage of the labeled substr…
