RESUMO

Mucopolysaccharidosis VI is a rare autosomal recessive disorder caused by the deficiency of enzyme Arylsulfatase B. The enzyme deficiency leads to the accumulation of dermatan sulfate in connective tissue which causes manifestations related to MPS VI. Up to now, three different disease causing variants are reported in Iranian patients. In this study, we scanned ARSB gene of 13 Iranian patients from 12 families in whom all parents were consanguineous and from the same ethnicity except one family that were not consanguineous but co-ethnic. We found six not previously reported disease causing variants. We extracted DNA from peripheral blood samples of patients that were previously confirmed as MPS VI by clinical, biochemical and enzymatic assays including berry-spot test and fluorimetry, followed by PCR and direct sequencing. Computational approaches were used to analyze novel variants in terms of their impact on the protein structure. 11 disease causing variants and 15 polymorphisms were found. Six disease causing variants were novel and five were previously reported of which three were in Iranian population. Four of patients, who were unrelated, two by two had the same disease causing variant and polymorphisms, which indicates a possible founder effect. Our study also implicates genotype-phenotype correlation. Computational structural modeling indicated these disease causing variants might affect structural stability and function of the protein. Data of this study confirms the existence of mutational heterogeneity in the ARSB between Iranian patients. Disease causing variants with high frequency can be used in the prenatal diagnosis and genetic counseling. Also, the existence of the same variants and polymorphisms in some of the unrelated patients indicates a possible founder effect.
