[Genetic polymorphisms of fifteen short tandem repeat loci in Guilin Han population]
1Department of Forensic Sciences, Public Security Bureau of Guilin City, Guilin, Guangxi, 541001 P.R. China.
Objective:
To investigate the genetic polymorphisms of 15 short tandem repeat (STRs) in Guilin Han population.
Methods:
DNA was extracted by Chelex method, and 15 STRs were analyzed using AmpFISTR Identifiler kit.
Results:
Four rare alleles, namely FGA * 10, D2S1338 * 10, D3S1358 * 16.2 and D3S1358 * 17.2, were observed. The combined match probability and exclusion probability for the 15 STRs were 2.89 x 10(-17) and 0.9999993, respectively.
Conclusion:
These STRs have good discrimination power and exclusion probability in Guilin Han population.

Comparing Copy Number Variations and SNPs
Copy number variations or CNVs are the structural variations that cover more than 1kb of DNA sequence. The single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP), on the other hand, is a single nucleotide change or a point mutation that is found in more than 1%...
