Microarray analysis of gene/transcript expression in Prader-Willi syndrome: deletion versus UPD
1 Aug 2003
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS), the most common genetic cause of marked obesity, is caused by genomic imprinting and loss of expression of paternal genes in the 15q11-q13 region. There is a paucity of data examining simultaneous gene expression in this syndrome. METHODS: We generated cDNA microarrays representing 73 non-redundant genes/transcripts from the 15q11-q13 region, the majority within the PWS...
