(For our list of subjects with an imprinting defect, click here.). UBE3A Mutation. Malfunction of the UBE3A gene on the maternal chromosome #15 seems to be the cause of Angelman syndrome. In the case of a UBE3A mutation, there is a mistake in the genetic code of the UBE3A gene.
Rarely, a genetic change responsible for Angelman syndrome can be inherited. For example, it is possible for a mutation in the UBE3A gene or in the nearby region of DNA that controls gene activation to be passed from one generation to the next.any of the characteristic features of Angelman syndrome result from the loss of function of a gene called UBE3A. People normally inherit one copy of the UBE3A gene from each parent. Both copies of this gene are turned on (active) in many of the body's tissues.
