Part Descriptions

LP62083-8   AS gene
Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) and Angelman syndrome (AS) are rare genetic disorders in which several genes (e.g. SNRPN, UBE3A) on chromosome 15(q11-13) are deleted or unexpressed. Alterations in the PWS/AS region (15q11-13) may occur by several genetic mechanisms, including chance mutation, uniparental disomy, sporadic mutations, chromosome translocations, and gene deletions. PWS and AS are some of the first reported instances of imprinting disorders in humans. In PWS, the maternally inherited copies of genes are virtually silent due to imprinting. Only the paternal copies of the genes are expressed. Therefore, PWS results from the loss of paternal copies of this region. Alternately, AS is caused by deletion or inactivation of genes on the maternally inherited chromosome 15 while the paternal copy, which may be of normal sequence, is imprinted and therefore silenced.

Characteristic features of PWS include diminished fetal activity, obesity, hypotonia, developmental delay, short stature, hypogonadotropic hypogonadism, strabismus, and small hands and feet. AS is characterized by intellectual and developmental disability, sleep disturbance, seizures, jerky movements (especially hand-flapping), frequent laughter or smiling, and usually a happy demeanor.

LP62083-8   AS gene
The AS gene (major histocompatibility complex, class I, B) gene is located on chromosome 6p21.3. HLA-B belongs to the HLA class I heavy chain paralogues. This class I molecule is a heterodimer consisting of a heavy chain and a light chain (beta-2 microglobulin). The heavy chain is anchored in the membrane. Class I molecules play a central role in the immune system by presenting peptides derived from the endoplasmic reticulum lumen. They are expressed in nearly all cells. The heavy chain is approximately 45 kDa and its gene contains 8 exons. Exon 1 encodes the leader peptide, exon 2 and 3 encode the alpha1 and alpha2 domains, which both bind the peptide, exon 4 encodes the alpha3 domain, exon 5 encodes the transmembrane region and exons 6 and 7 encode the cytoplasmic tail. Polymorphisms within exon 2 and exon 3 are responsible for the peptide binding specificity of each class one molecule. Typing for these polymorphisms is routinely done for bone marrow and kidney transplantation. Hundreds of HLA-B alleles have been described.
