Genetics
AS has complicated genetics, with at least 5 varying genetic defects able to cause the condition. Every single one of them includes a particular area on the chromosome 15 inherited from the mother. This section is titled 15q11-13 (bands 11 through 13 on the long arm of chromosome 15). Indicating a distinctive singularity known as imprinting, AS only occurs when anomalies appear in this area of the maternal copy of chromosome 15.
