| Abstract: | The X-linked short tandem repeats (STR) markers have proven to be very useful tools for paternity testing when the disputed child is female. The aim of this study was to describe the polymorphism of three X-chromosomal STR loci (DXS6797, DXS6800 and HPRTB) in an Antioquian (Colombian) population sample. PCR products were separated in 4% acrylamide-bis-acrylamide denaturing gels followed by silver staining. Allele size determination and genotyping were performed according to recommendations of the DNA Commission of the International Society of Forensic Genetic using the allelic ladder manufactured at home and based on DNA controls including K562 and 9947A (Promega). Gene frequencies were calculated using ARLEQUIN version 3.11. Population genetic data were obtained by analyzing 127-400 unrelated males and 135 unrelated females from Antioquian (Colombian) population. Distribution of the allele frequencies of these systems for Antioquia population is similar to the European populations. |
