Objective:
To establish a miniSTR multiplex set including three STR loci unlinked from the CODIS loci: D1S1676, D6S1274 and D17S1299, to generate amplified fragment less than 115 bp in size and to study the genotype of degraded DNA samples.
Methods:
After amplification with different fluorescence labeled primers, the amplified products from 100 unrelated individual and 2 highly degraded specimens were analyzed by 310 Genetic Analyzer.
Results:
Three miniSTR loci were determined by fluorescence-labeled multiplex-PCR technique. Each locus was successfully genotyped in all 100 samples. In D1S1676, D6S1274 and D17S1299 loci, 9, 9, 7 alleles and 27, 23, 18 genotypes were observed respectively. The distribution of genotype for three miniSTR loci in Chengdu Han population was in accordance with Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. The combined exclusion probability and the combined discrimination power of the three STR loci in Chengdu Han population were 0.9991 and 0.9160 respectively.
Conclusion:
This miniSTR multiplex set could be used in individual identification and paternity test. It also provides a new method in the analysis of degraded DNA sample.
