Abstract excerpt
Previously, 158 nuclear families with probands suspected of having either Prader Willi (PWS) or Angelman syndrome (AS) were analyzed with polymorphic DNA markers from the 15q11-13 region. These cases have been re-evaluated with the probe PW71 (D15S63), which detects parent-of-origin-specific alleles after digestion with a methylation-sensitive restriction enzyme (HpaII). Application of PW71 to DNA samples...
