Abstract excerpt
<h4>Abstract/Summary</h4> Patients with Prader-Willi-Syndrome (PWS) display intellectual impairment, hyperphagia, and various behavioral problems during childhood that converge on a neurologic deficit. The majority of PWS patients have genetic deletions of the paternal 15q11–q13 chromosomal region, with their maternal PWS locus intact but epigenetically silenced by hypermethylation and repressive histone modulati...
