Cytogenetic and molecular studies in the Prader-Willi and Angelman syndromes: an overview
Abstract
The majority of patients with Angelman syndrome and Prader-Willi syndrome have a cytogenetic and molecular deletion of chromosome 15q11q13 with the primary difference being in the parental origin of deletion. Our current understanding of the cytogenetics and molecular genetics of these 2 clinically distinct syndromes will be discussed in this review.
