Identify a review and a research article related to your group topic.

This research article showed genotype-phenotype correlations in Angelman Syndrome (AS). They have concluded that deletion patients had worse developmental outcomes than non deletion patients. Abstract at PMID 20729760

This review article is really comprehensive and gives a good background knowledge of AS. Astract at PMID 20445456
