Extractions: 29 July 2003 Disease characteristics. Angelman syndrome (AS) is characterized by: 1) severe developmental delay or mental retardation; 2) severe speech impairment; 3) gait ataxia and/or tremulousness of the limbs; and 4) a unique behavior with an inappropriate happy demeanor that includes frequent laughing, smiling, and excitability. In addition, microcephaly and seizures are common. Diagnosis/testing. The diagnosis of Angelman syndrome rests upon a combination of clinical features and molecular genetic testing and/or cytogenetic analysis. Consensus clinical diagnostic criteria for AS have been developed. Analysis of parent-specific DNA methylation imprints in the 15q11.2-q13 chromosome region detects ~78% of patients with AS, including those with a deletion uniparental disomy , or an imprinting defect; fewer than 1% of patients have a cytogenetically visible chromosome rearrangement (i.e.

Extractions: I. Definitions: Chromosome 15 - The chromosome that is abnormal in Angelman syndrome. We have 23 pairs of chromosomes, one derived from each parent. There are 22 pairs that are numbered numerically from 1 to 22, the final pair is an X and Y. We receive one chromosome 15 from our mother and one chromosome 15 from our father. Chromosomes contain millions of molecules that are condensed together at the time of cell division and thus are able to be seen under the microscope. 15qll-13 Region - Chromosomes are divided into short arms and long arms and have a central segment called a centromere. The short arm is call "P" and the long arm is called "q". The "q" region is divided numerically into several segments and the q11 - 13 segment refers to an area that is toward the middle of the number 15 chromosome. It spans about 5-10 million nucleic acid molecules so this region includes many genes. It is the

Extractions: Am. J. Hum. Genet. 58:1085-1088, 1996 Angelman syndrome (AS) is a clinically distinct disorder from PWS that can also be difficult to diagnose, particularly in the first few years of life. Approximately 70% of cases of AS have a deletion of 15q11-q13 in the maternally contributed chromosome 15. In most cases, this is the same deletion as that identified in PWS. About 3%-5% of cases of AS are due to paternal UPD. An abnormality in the imprinting process has been described in about one-third of the remaining 25% of patients; others in that gro up are hypothesized to have AS on the basis of a single gene mutation whose genetic locus is unknown. This category includes some familial cases that are mapped to 15q11-q13. None of the recurrences of PWS or AS, to date, have involved the typical deletion or UPD, but rather have involved translocations, imprinting mutations, or AS patients with no detectable molecular abnormality. The following are the recommendations of a Joint American College of Medical Genetics/American Society of Human Genetics Test and Technology Transfer Committee working group, which was convened to identify scientifically and clinically valid approaches to the diagnosis of PWS and AS and determination of their genetic basis.

Extractions: Research into Angelman Syndrome Angelman Syndrome (AS) is neurological disorder in which severe learning difficulties are associated with a characteristic facial appearance and behaviour. Dr. Harry Angelman, a paediatrician working in Warrington, Cheshire, first reported three children with this condition in 1965 and it was initially presumed to be rare. In 1987, it was first noted that around half of the children with AS have a small piece of chromosome 15 missing (chromosome 15 deletion). Since this time the condition has been reported more frequently and the incidence is now thought to be 1 in 25,000 children. return to top The diagnosis of AS is usually made by a paediatrician or clinical geneticist and is based on:

Extractions: What is Angelman syndrome? Angelman syndrome (AS) is an inherited neurological disorder resulting in severe learning difficulties, developmental delay, and typical facial appearance and behavior. The most common age of diagnosis with Angelman syndrome is between three and seven years when the signs become most evident. AS affects about 1 in 25,000 children.
