Genetic polymorphisms of fifteen short tandem repeat loci in Guilin Han population / 中华医学遗传学杂志

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the genetic polymorphisms of 15 short tandem repeat (STRs) in Guilin Han population.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>DNA was extracted by Chelex method, and 15 STRs were analyzed using AmpFISTR Identifiler kit.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>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.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>These STRs have good discrimination power and exclusion probability in Guilin Han population.</p>
