Informations générales
Mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) is a class of metabolic disorders that typically cause severe neurological problems and other developmental issues. This variant of the disease, known as Mucopolysaccharidosis Type VI (MPS VI), is caused by a recessive mutation to the gene ARSB, and is found in the Great Dane. Related variants also occur in the Miniature Poodle, Miniature Schnauzer and Miniature Pinscher.
