Abstract The Beckwith–Wiedemann syndrome (BWS) is characterized by somatic
overgrowth and a predisposition to pediatric embryonal tumors. It is associated with genetic …

Beckwith–Wiedemann syndrome (BWS) is an imprinting disorder characterized by

Dysregulation of imprinted genes on human chromosome 11p15 has been implicated in
Beckwith–Wiedemann syndrome (BWS), an overgrowth syndrome associated with …

Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome (BWS) is a model imprinting disorder resulting from
mutations or epigenetic events involving imprinted genes at chromosome 11p15. 5. Thus …

Beckwith–Wiedemann syndrome (BWS) is a clinically variable disorder characterized by

Genomic imprinting is an epigenetic phenomenon that leads to parent-specific differential
expression of a subset of genes. Most imprinted genes form clusters, or imprinting domains …

Abstract Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome (BWS) Is a congenital overgrowth syndrome with
