mucopolysaccharidosis IIIC (MPS IIIC, or Sanfilippo C syndrome) is a lysosomal storage disorder caused by the inherited deficiency of the lysosomal membrane enzyme acetyl-coenzyme A:alpha-glucosaminide N-acetyltransferase, which leads to impaired degradation of heparan sulfate. Structural protein that transports the activated acetyl residues across the cell membrane |

enzyme is acetylated at the cytoplasmic side of the lysosome and the acetyl group is then transferred to the inside where it is used to acetylate heparan sulfate |
