Allelic Variant 1 |
; PRADER-WILLI SYNDROME |
Identified Mutation |
DEL PATERNAL EXON ALPHA |
Remarks |
Typical features of PWS; has paternal deletion of exon alpha of SNRPN which occurs within a differentially methylated CpG island and causes altered methylation and loss of paternal expression over hundreds of kb |
