Identification of a testis-specific gene (C15orf2) in the Prader-Willi syndrome region on chromosome 15.

Genomics - 15 Apr 2000

Abstract excerpt

Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) results from the loss of paternal contributions for a 2-Mb imprinted region on the proximal long arm of human chromosome 15. Hitherto, five paternally active genes have been identified in this region (ZNF127, NDN, MAGEL2, SNURF-SNRPN, and IPW). Here we report the identification of a novel gene in the PWS critical region, which has been designated "chromosome 15 open reading frame 2"...
