| Popis: | Short tandem repeats (STRs) are used by many laboratories throughout the world performing paternity testing or criminal casework. Nevertheless, many of the established STRs have obvious disadvantages such as low number of common alleles (e.g., hTPO, THO1) or alleles with frequencies of nearly 50% (e.g., hTPO, FES). In this paper the new STR locus D3S1359 is described. In a population study which was carried out on 136 unrelated individuals from southwestern Germany, we have detected 17 different alleles. The most common allele was allele 13 (204 bp) with a frequency of 18.8%. Eight further alleles have frequencies higher than 5%. With a heterozygozity index of 90% and 60 different genotypes, D3S1359 has shown to be a highly polymorphic and informative marker. Sequencing data of this STR locus revealed further variation. |
