Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Allele frequencies for 37 short tandem repeat (STR) autosomal loci were obtained from a sample of 175 unrelated individuals in a Japanese population. Novel variant alleles were observed and defined by its sequence on D5S818, D19S433, F13B and FGA. Linkage disequilibrium was observed between FESFPS and Penta E on chromosome 15. To aid DNA identification using 36 STR loci for kinship analysis, likelihood ratio distributions were estimated. However, a typing kit targeting 36 STR loci is not suitable for the analysis of damaged DNA. In this study, we developed a novel miniplex DNA identification system targeting 7 STR loci (D3S1744, D5S818, D8S1179, D10S2325, Penta D, Penta E, and vWA) that was optimized for use in combination with MiniFiler for the Japanese population.
