Abstract excerpt
Prader-Willi syndrome and Angelman syndrome are distinct neurodevelopmental disorders that are associated with the deletion of the chromosomal 15q11-13 region or uniparental disomy of chromosome 15. In this article, we applied SYBR Green I-based real-time PCR and melting curve analysis assay for rapid genotyping of the small nuclear ribonucleoprotein polypeptide N (SNRPN) gene methylation status and for detecting...
