First Report of Uniparental Isodisomy of Chromosome 15 Revealing Angelman Syndrome and Microphthalmia Associated With a Novel Homozygous ALDH1A3 Variant

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Paternal isodisomy of chromosome 15 (iUPD15) is a recognized cause of Angelman syndrome (AS), accounting for approximately 2%–5% of cases. Additionally, another recognized consequence of iUPD is the unmasking of autosomal recessive disorders. However, reports of recessive disorders resulting from iUPD15 remain scarce in the literature.
