Term Description

Approximately 70% of cases of Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) are caused by paternal deletion of the 15q11-q13 region. This region includes the small nuclear ribonucleoprotein polypeptide N (SNRPN) gene. This code is based on, but not limited to, Kreatech Diagnostic's MD Prader-Willi SNRPN (15q11) region probe to detect copy numbers of the SNRPN gene region at 15q11. Labs may report the X number of cells out of Y number that have the probe deletion (or duplication), which is usually 100% if present (i.e. 20 out of 20, 100%). Result are reported in ISCN (International System for Human Cytogenetic Nomenclature) format. This test does not detect uniparental disomy (UPD, LOINC 34503-3), which may also cause PWS (and Angelman syndrome, AS).

Part Descriptions

LP157727-1   SNRPN gene 15q11
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.

LP62864-1   FISH
FISH (fluorescence in situ hybridization) is a cytogenetic technique used to detect and localize the presence or absence of specific DNA sequences on chromosomes. FISH uses fluorescent probes that bind to only those parts of the chromosome with which they show a high degree of sequence similarity. Fluorescence microscopy can be used to find out where the fluorescent probe bound to the chromosomes. FISH is often used for finding specific features in DNA for use in genetic counseling, medicine, and species identification. FISH can also be used to detect and localize specific mRNAs within tissue samples. In this context, it can help define the spatial-temporal patterns of gene expression within cells and tissues.
