abstract：:Angelman syndrome (AS) is a rare neurodevelopmental disorder. Recently, several mutations have been found in the E6-AP ubiquitin protein ligase gene (UBE3A) in a group of patients who are nondeleted and do not have uniparental disomy or imprinting defects. Most of the reported mutations cluster within exons 9 or 16 of...
