Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) and Angelman syndrome (AS) are diseases that are both caused by a deletion in the same region of chromosome 15, namely 15q11-q13 (exact position chr15:22805313-28390339 (GRCh37) taken from Kirov et al. 2014 and literature cited there). Due to methylation patterns however, different genes are responsible for the two syndromes. This pathway depicts the currently known downstream molecular interactions of several of the genes involved in PWS and/or AS. For this chromosomal region, also duplications are known. The colours of the pathway sections correspond to the colours of the genes on top. Dashed lines indicate a gap between a component and the downstream pathway. A rectangle is drawn to improve the clarity of the pathway; darker colours indicate that this particular part is derived from research in other animals than humans. A detailed description of the pathway has been published by [http://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/15622975.2018.1439594 Ehrhart et al.]. The published version is WP3998-94544. Proteins on this pathway have targeted assays available via the [https://assays.cancer.gov/available_assays?wp_id=WP3998 CPTAC Assay Portal] Prader Willi and Angelman syndrome Prader Willi and Angelman Syndrome Prader-Willi and Angelman syndrome Prader-Willi Prader-Willi syndrome f8b ee0 a01 b56 aae f8b e1d dce e2a bd4 eae e62 aae a2d f8b d57 b61 e82 a01 fc1 bd4 e42 cb4 b6a c93 e41 found for mouse ESCs/NCSCs bd4 b61 found for GT1-7 cells b61 found for GT1-7 cells b61 a21 f8b evidence found in Ndn(tm2Stw) mice embryos (C57BL/6J line) c34 found for PC12 cells after NGF stimulation f8b found for PC12 cells after NGF stimulation f8b found for PC12 cells after NGF stimulation f8b found for POMC neurons a2d a2d found for GABRB3(tm1Geh) mouse strain eae The effect of FEZ1 was found in mouse studies (C57BL/6J line).

In mice, the function of the FEZ1 orthologue Fez1 or UNC-76 was examined. f8b The information in this section is derived from research in PC12 cells. Evidence for human cells is not yet available. f8b This area contains a schematic description of the HTR2C pre-RNA with its different exons. SNORD115 binds to a specific sequence in exon Va, by which it promotes the inclusion of exon Vb, and reduces the amount of RNA encoding the truncated receptor. Excluding exon Vb leads to formation of a truncated receptor. a2d 11438699 PubMed A highly conserved protein family interacting with the fragile X mental retardation protein (FMRP) and displaying selective interactions with FMRP-related proteins FXR1P and FXR2P.
