Point to note :

Mnemonic :
Its usually confusing to remember Prader willi and Angelman , deletion or disomy , maternal or paternal.
So here is the way

Prader Willi -- is Paternal Deletion (or maternal uniparental disomy) and Angelman's is vice-a-versa.

MLH1 on chromosome 3, 
MSH3 on chromosome 5, and 
PMS2 on chromosome 7. 

MSH2 and MLH1 account for the majority of mutations in HNPCC families.
