UBE3A Dosage Imbalance as a Molecular Framework Linking Angelman Syndrome and Dup15q‐Associated Autism Phenotypes

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT UBE3A is a dosage‐sensitive HECT E3 ubiquitin ligase whose neuronal expression is shaped by genomic imprinting at the 15q11.2‐q13 locus. Opposite directions of UBE3A dosage imbalance contribute to distinct neurodevelopmental phenotypes: loss of maternal UBE3A underlies Angelman syndrome, whereas maternally derived 15q11.2‐q13 copy‐number gains,
