Identify pathogenic mutation of the NF1 gene in a pedigree of NF1

Mucopolysaccharidosis VI (MPS VI) is an autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disease caused by mutations in the arylsulfatase B gene (ARSB) and consequent deficient activity of ARSB, a lysosomal enzyme involved in glycosaminoglycan (s) (GAGs) metabolism.
