Population data of nine STR loci,D3S1358, vWA,FGA, TH01, TPOX,CSF1PO,D5S818, D13S317 and D7S820, in Bangladeshis and Indonesians

Allele frequencies of nine short tandem repeat (STR) loci, D3S1358, vWA, FGA, TH01, TPOX, CSF1PO, D5S818, D13S317 and D7S820, were determined for 127 unrelated Bangladeshi individuals and 105 unrelated Indonesian individuals using the AmpFLSTR Profiler Kit.

Allele frequencies data and statistic parameters for 16 STR loci-D19S433, D2S1338, CSF1PO, D16S539, D7S820, D21S11, D18S51, D13S317, D5S818, FGA, Penta E, TH01, vWA, D8S1179, TPOX, D3S1358-in the Rio de Janeiro population, Brazil

Allele frequencies for 16 short tandem repeats (STR) loci were determined with a sample of 230-300 unrelated individuals from the population of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The loci are the most commonly used in forensic and paternity testing, being analysed by the Identifiler (Applied Biosystems) and PowerPlex 2.1 (Promega) commercial kits. It was proved that Penta E and D18S51 are the most polymorphic loci.     

Analysis of the co-amplified STR loci D1S1656, D12S391 and D18S51: population data and validation study for a highly discriminating triplex-PCR

A multiplex-PCR composed of the three highly variable STR loci D1S1656, D12S391 and D18S51 has been established. The non-overlapping fragment sizes allow allele detection using a monochrome automated laser fluorescent sequencer (A.L.F. express, Pharmacia Biotech). The typing results of the triplex-PCR showed no difference to those of singleplex-PCR. Allele frequencies were determined in a Western German population of 228 individuals from Cologne. The heterozygosities and exclusion chances (D1S1656, 0.982; D12S391, 0.979; D18S51, 0.97) are very high compared to other short tandem repeats used for forensic applications. No deviations from the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium were found. Successful typing of DNA amounts down to 50-100 pg is possible. Mixtures of up to 1:10 can be identified. In conclusion, the high combined exclusion chance due to the well-balanced allelic distribution and its high sensitivity make this triplex-PCR a valuable tool for forensic casework.     

Population data on the D1S1656 and D12S391 STR loci in Andalusia (south Spain) and the maghreb (north Africa).

Allele and genotype frequencies for two tetrameric short tandem repeat (STR) loci were determined in two population samples, from Andalusia (S Spain; n = 127) and the Maghreb (N Africa; n = 40). After denaturing polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, 14 alleles were identified for D12S391 and 13 alleles for D1S1656. No deviations from the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium were detected. Some statistical parameters of forensic interest (H, PD, EC) were also calculated, and the data obtained for both populations were compared. Sequencing data of several intermediate D12S391 alleles designated 17.3, 18.3, and 19.3 are also presented.     

Population genetics of the D1S1656, D12S391, and D18S535 loci in Asturias (North Spain)

Allele and genotype frequencies for three recently described short tandem repeat loci D1S1656, D12S391, and D18S535 were determined in a population sample from Asturias (North Spain). The loci were amplified using a fluorescence based PCR method and were typed automatically. No deviation from Hardy-Weinberg expectations were observed. The three loci proved to be highly discriminating and the allele frequencies observed are similar to those of the other European populations that have been typed for these loci to date.

Allelic distribution of four tetranucleotide repeat loci (D3S1358, D18S51, D19S253, and FGA) in a population from Porto (North Portugal)

Allele frequencies for four short tandem repeat loci were determined in a population sample from Porto (North Portugal), using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR), in order to investigate possible genetic differences between populations from the center and north of Portugal. After denaturing PAGE electrophoresis, nine alleles were identified for D3S1358 (n = 256), 13 alleles for D18S51 (n = 235), 10 alleles for D19S253 (n = 238), and 15 alleles for FGA (n = 181). No deviations from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium were found. The allele frequencies observed are similar to those of the Portuguese population compared except for the D3S1358 system.     

Population genetic studies on the tetrameric short tandem repeat loci D3S1358, VWA, FGA, D8S1179, D21S11, D18S51, D5S818, D13S317 and D7S820 in Egypt.

The short tandem repeat loci (STRs) D3S1358, VWA, FGA, D8S1179, D21S11, D18S51, D5S818, D13S317, D7S820 and a locus allowing for sex-discrimination (amelogenin) can be co-amplified by the polymerase chain reaction using a commercially available kit (AmpFlSTR Profiler plus, Perkin-Elmer Biosystems, San Jose, CA) and subsequently typed using capillary electrophoresis (ABI Prism 310 Genetic analyzer, Perkin Elmer Applied Biosystems, San Jose CA). To establish databases for these loci for an Arab population sample from Egypt, 140 unrelated persons were typed. Analysis of these data revealed that all loci except for VWA were in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, that the combined mean paternity exclusion chance (MEC) was 0.999875 and that the combined discriminating power (DP) was 2.635 x 10(-11). The allelic distributions found in the Egyptian sample were significantly different at four loci from those found for an Austrian Caucasian population, at all nine loci from an African-American sample and at six of six loci from a Chinese sample. No evidence of linkage equilibrium between any of the co-amplified loci was found. Our results support that the combination of multiplex PCR and capillary electrophoresis can both save time and yield excellent results for paternity testing and stain analysis.

Developmental validation of a single-tube amplification of the 13 CODIS STR loci, D2S1338, D19S433, and amelogenin: the AmpFlSTR Identifiler PCR Amplification Kit

Analysis of length polymorphism at short tandem repeat (STR) loci utilizing the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) process has proven to be an ideal assay for human identification purposes. The short length of STR loci coupled with the amplification of target sequence through PCR allows for a robust, sensitive, and specific assay for highly polymorphic markers. A multiplex containing fifteen STR loci plus the gender-determining locus Amelogenin was developed to provide a single amplification/detection of all CODIS (Combined DNA Index System) STR loci (CSF1PO, D3S1358, D5S818, D7S820, D8S1179, D13S317, D16S539, D18S51, D21S11, FGA, TH01, TPOX, and vWA) as well as two internationally-accepted STRs (D2S1338 and D19S433). By incorporating five-dye fragment analysis technology and non-nucleotide linkers, previously optimized AmpFlSTR kit primer sequences have been maintained. This kit has been developed in accordance with the standards of the forensic community as defined by the DNA Advisory Board. Validation studies were performed to include developmental validation, and the results support the use of the AmpFlSTR Identifiler PCR Amplification Kit for human identity and parentage testing.     

Population genetics of nine STR loci: TH01, TPOX, CSF1PO, vWA, FESFPS, F13A01, D13S317, D7S820 and D16S539 in a Korean population

Allele frequencies for nine STR loci namely, TH01, TPOX, CSF1PO, vWA, FESFPS, F13A01, D13S317, D7S820 and D16S539 were obtained from a sample of 437 unrelated individuals living in Chungcheong-do, South Korea.     

Spanish population data on the loci D13S317, D7S820, and D16S539 generated using silver staining (SilverSTR III Multiplex).

A set of 212 samples from unrelated Spanish Caucasians living in Andalucia (southern Spain) were analyzed with a new commercially-available kit for multiplex amplification of 3 STR loci (D13S137, D7S820, and D16S539), manual denaturing polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and silver staining. These three loci are of special interest for the forensic community since they are a part of the 13 CODIS-core STR loci. The results show that the loci D13S317 and D16S539 meet Hardy-Weinberg expectations (HWE), but the locus D7S820 did not meet HWE (p = 0.003). However, there was no detectable departures from independence (i.e., linkage disequilibrium) between any pair-wise combination of loci. The D7S820 data were further investigated. The excess homozygosity was due to an excess of D7S820 10, 10 homozygotes. To determine if the allele frequency data are meaningful and can be applied to forensic identity cases, the Spanish D7S820 allele frequency data were compared with four other Caucasian sample populations. The D7S820 allele frequencies were statistically similar; thus, the results support that the allele frequency data can be used reliably for estimating DNA profile frequencies.
