Extractions: I. Definitions: Chromosome 15 - The chromosome that is abnormal in Angelman syndrome. We have 23 pairs of chromosomes, one derived from each parent. There are 22 pairs that are numbered numerically from 1 to 22, the final pair is an X and Y. We receive one chromosome 15 from our mother and one chromosome 15 from our father. Chromosomes contain millions of molecules that are condensed together at the time of cell division and thus are able to be seen under the microscope. 15qll-13 Region - Chromosomes are divided into short arms and long arms and have a central segment called a centromere. The short arm is call "P" and the long arm is called "q". The "q" region is divided numerically into several segments and the q11 - 13 segment refers to an area that is toward the middle of the number 15 chromosome. It spans about 5-10 million nucleic acid molecules so this region includes many genes. It is the

Characteristic features of the condition include developmental delay or mental retardation, severe speech impairment, and problems with movement and balance (ataxia). People with Angelman syndrome typically have a happy, excitable demeanor with frequent smiling, excessive laughter, and hand-flapping movements. Some affected individuals also have unusually fair skin and light-colored hair. How common is Angelman syndrome?

Facts About Angelman Syndrome Genetic Basis of AS Table Genetic Classes of angelman syndrome genetics ofangelman syndrome. Am J Hum Genet 1999 65(1) 16. http://asclepius.com/angel/asfinfo.html
Extractions: Contains detailed information and medical reference links about the genetic aspects of AS. In 1965, Dr. Harry Angelman, an English physician, first described three children with characteristics now known as the Angelman syndrome (AS) (1). He noted that all had a stiff, jerky gait, absent speech, excessive laughter and seizures. Other cases were eventually published (2-8) but the condition was considered to be extremely rare and many physicians doubted its existence. The first reports from North America appeared in the early 1980s (9, 10) and within the last ten years many new reports have appeared (11-18). Dr. Angelman relates the following regarding his discovery of this syndrome (19). AS has been reported throughout the world among divergent racial groups. In North America, the great majority of known cases seem to be of Caucasian origin. Although the exact incidence of AS is unknown, an estimate of between 1 in 15,000 to 1 in 30,000 seems reasonable (16, 20).

Extractions: Research into Angelman Syndrome Angelman Syndrome (AS) is neurological disorder in which severe learning difficulties are associated with a characteristic facial appearance and behaviour. Dr. Harry Angelman, a paediatrician working in Warrington, Cheshire, first reported three children with this condition in 1965 and it was initially presumed to be rare. In 1987, it was first noted that around half of the children with AS have a small piece of chromosome 15 missing (chromosome 15 deletion). Since this time the condition has been reported more frequently and the incidence is now thought to be 1 in 25,000 children. return to top The diagnosis of AS is usually made by a paediatrician or clinical geneticist and is based on:
