Epigenetic complexities at the heart of 15q11-13

15q noncoding RNAs involved in topotecan action and diurnal metabolism

Janine M. LaSalle, Ph.D UC Davis School of Medicine MIND Instute Genome Center 15q duplications: the interesting case of too many maternal copies Does copy number correlate with copy number of 15q11-13 in Dup15q syndrome?

• Minimal deletion causing Prader-Willi Syndrome maps to the repetitive region encoding the snoRNA SNORD116 (HBII-85)

• SNRPN is expressed ubiquitously. In mouse brain, Snord116, Snord115, and Ube3a-antisense are expressed only in neurons. In humans, SNORD116 is expressed at a low level in non-neuronal tissues.
