Epigenetic alterations at imprinted genes on different chromosomes have been linked to several imprinting disorders (IDs) such as Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome (BWS) and pseudohypoparathyroidism type 1b (PHP1b). Here, we present a male patient with these two distinct IDs caused by two independent mechanisms-loss of methylation (LOM) at chromosome 11p15.5 associated with multi-locus imprinting disturbances (MLID and paternal uniparental disomy of chromosome 20 (patUPD20). A clinical diagnosis of BWS was made based on the clinical features of macrosomia, macroglossia, and umbilical hernia. The diagnosis of PHP1b was supported by the presence of reduced growth velocity and mild learning disability as well as hypocalcemia and hyperphosphatemia at 14 years of age. Molecular analyses, including genome-wide DNA methylation (Illumina 450k array), bisulfite pyrosequencing, single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) array and microsatellite analysis, demonstrated loss of methylation (LOM) at IC2 on chromosome 11p15.5, and paternal isodisomy of the entire chromosome 20. In addition, imprinting disturbances were noted at the differentially methylated regions (DMRs) associated with DIRAS3 on chromosome 1 and PLAGL1 on chromosome 6. This is the first case report of PHP1b due to patUPD20 diagnosed in a BWS patient with LOM at IC2 demonstrating etiologic heterogeneity for multiple imprinting disorders in a single individual.

AbstractA male child has been identified with Angelman syndrome. He has been shown to carry a de novo Robertsonian 15/15 translocation where both chromosome 15s have been derived from the father. Consequently the disease in this instance is due to paternal uniparental disomy.
