Alpha-N-acetylglucosaminidase (NAGLU) hydrolyses the non-reducing, terminal N-acetyl-D-glucosamine residue from heparan sulfate. The active form of the enzyme (77kDa) is derived from a 82kDa precursor (Weber et al. 1996). Defects in NAGLU cause of mucopolysaccharidosis type IIIB (MPSIIIB, MIM:252920) also known as Sanfilippo syndrome type B (Beesley et al. 2005).
