2个Y——STR基因座在成都汉族群体中的遗传学研究

目的为了寻求新的适合于法医学应用的Y染色体STR基因座,我们调查了基因座DYS442和DYS446在成都群体中的分布. 方法样本来自于成都地区汉族无血缘关系的个体,通过Chelex法提取样本DNA,利用PCR扩增硝酸银染色方法进行分型 . 结果 DYS442是一个四核苷酸简单重复基因座,而DYS446则为五核苷酸简单重复基因座.男性样本都出现了谱带,而女性样本则无PCR产物.DYS442基因座和DYS44 6基因座变异度分别为:0.6867、0.7552. 结论 DYS442和DYS446是非常适合于法医学应用的STR基因座.

Y chromosome STR haplotypes and allele frequencies in Illinois Caucasian, African American, and Hispanic males

POPULATION: Population: Illinois Caucasian ( n =117), Illinois African American ( n =218), and Illinois Hispanic ( n =68).     

Powerplex® Y 23 System: Molecular characterization of a null allele at locus DYS549

We observed a null allele pattern at locus DYS549 in a male subject from North-East Italy typed with the PowerPlex^® Y 23 System (Promega). To investigate whether this pattern was due to the presence of a microdeletion/mutation in primer binding sites or in the locus target region, the sample was amplified with our designed DYS549 primers obtained from GenBank sequence (GDB: 515022). After amplification, a normal hemizygous genotype at this locus was generated, thus indicating the presence of a point mutation in the binding site of the original primer set of PowerPlex^® Y 23 System (Promega). This was further confirmed by sequence analysis, carried out with the Big Dye Terminator v3.1 Cycle Sequencing kit (Applied Biosystems), according to the manufacturer's instructions. Sequences were run on the ABI Prism 3130 Genetic Analyzer (Applied Biosystems) and analyzed using the Sequencing Analysis v.5.3.1 and the SeqScape v2.6 softwares (Applied Biosystems). Ascertainment of the frequency of null alleles generated from variations at primer binding sites of short tandem repeats loci is of great importance in forensic genetics.     

A Y‐Chromosomal Haplotype with Two Short Tandem Repeat Mutations*

Abstract:  The male‐specific Y‐chromosomal short tandem repeat (STR) is a useful tool in forensic casework. The Y haplotype comprised of 16 loci, which is amplified simultaneously by AmpFlSTR^® Yfiler^TM PCR kit and provides strong exculpatory evidence in individual identification. We reported a rare Y‐STR profile with a null allele at the DYS448 locus and an off‐ladder allele at the DYS456 locus, when genotyping material from a vaginal swab in an alleged rape case. Sequence analysis revealed that the DYS448 null allele was a true type of null allele because of a total deletion of 11 upstream repeats and 9 bp of the N₄₂ region, and there were numerous primer binding site mutations as well. The amplicon of the DYS456 locus was a small 92‐bp fragment that was off‐ladder, and sequencing analysis showed that there were only 10 repeats (AGAT)₁₀. This Y chromosome haplotype that was comprised of two variations provided helpful evidence for personal identification.     

荧光复合扩增4个Y染色体STR的单倍型及其法医学应用

目的建立一套Y染色体STR的双色荧光复合扩增系统,调查4个Y-STR基因座单倍型分布情况及其在混合斑物证检验中的法医学应用前景。方法荧光标记引物复合扩增Y-GATA-A10、DYS531、DYS557和DYS448四个Y染色体特异性STR基因座,并用ABⅠ310遗传分析仪对扩增产物进行检测、分型。结果在成都汉族120名无关男性个体中,四个基因座分别检出5、5、8、7个等位基因,共检出78种单倍型,单倍型基因多样性为0.9881。对3例本教研室不能用常规常染色体STR对男性成份作出同一认定的混合斑检材,该系统成功的作出了与嫌疑人血液Y-STR基因型一致的鉴定结论。结论建立的Y-STR荧光标记复合扩增系统具有很高的识别能力,对建立Y染色体STR数据库,研究群体遗传学和进行法医学混合斑物证鉴定有重要意义。
