2016, Archives of Oral BiologyCitation Excerpt :There are three main mechanisms resulting in PWS. The majority of individuals with PWS (70%) have a paternally derived deletion of 15q11-13, whilst maternal disomy 15 (UPD) occurs in 25% and the remaining 2–5% have imprinting defects (Cassidy et al., 1997Driscoll et al., 1992). The typical PWS deletion consists of two classes, type 1 and type 2 depending on the size and chromosome breakpoint position.
