Paternal uniparental disomy 14 and related disorders
Although recent studies in patients with paternal uniparental disomy 14 [upd(14)pat] and other conditions affecting the chromosome 14q32.2 imprinted region have successfully identified underlying epigenetic factors involved in the development of upd(14)pat phenotype, several matters, including regulatory mechanism(s) for RTL1 expression, imprinting status of DIO3 and placental histological char...
متن کاملMaternal uniparental disomy for chromosome 14.
We report the first case of maternal uniparental disomy of chromosome 14 in humans. The male proband inherited a balanced 13;14 Robertsonian translocation from his mother. Molecular studies showed that neither chromosome 14 was of paternal origin. The proband is of above average intelligence, but he has hydrocephalus, a bifid uvula, premature puberty, short stature, and small testes. It is not ...
متن کاملPaternal uniparental disomy for chromosome 6 causes transient neonatal diabetes.
We report an infant with intrauterine growth retardation and transient neonatal diabetes who has paternal uniparental disomy for chromosome 6. The infant was not dysmorphic and had no congenital anomalies. To our knowledge, this is the third case of paternal uniparental disomy occurring in an infant with transient neonatal diabetes, thus confirming the association.
متن کاملMolecular Mechanisms Leading to the Phenotypic Development in Paternal and Maternal Uniparental Disomy for Chromosome 14
Human chromosome 14q32.2 carries a cluster of imprinted genes. They include paternally expressed genes (PEGs) such as DLK1 and RTL1, and maternally expressed genes (MEGs) such as GTL2 (alias, MEG3), RTL1as (RTL1 antisense), and MEG8. Consistent with this, paternal and maternal uniparental disomies for chromosome 14 (upd(14)pat and upd(14)mat) cause distinct phenotypes. In this review, we summar...
متن کاملEpigenetic detection of human chromosome 14 uniparental disomy.
The recent demonstration of genomic imprinting of DLK1 and MEG3 on human chromosome 14q32 indicates that these genes might contribute to the discordant phenotypes associated with uniparental disomy (UPD) of chromosome 14. Regulation of imprinted expression of DLK1 and MEG3 involves a differentially methylated region (DMR) that encompasses the MEG3 promoter. We exploited the normal differential ...
