| Popis: | Karamoja is a region located in the northeast edge of Uganda where it borders Kenya and Sudan. The majority of inhabitants of this region belong to Karimojong ethnic groups. In this work, we present allele frequencies for 15 STRs included in the AmpF/STR Identifiler kit (CSF1PO, D2S1338, D3S1358, D5S818, D7S820, D8S1179, D13S317, D16S539, D18S51, D19S433, D21S11, FGA, TH01, TPO and VWA) in 218 unrelated individuals from Karamoja region. Observed genotype distributions for each locus do not show deviations from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium expectations. When comparing allele frequencies, for each locus, with other five African samples (Equatorial Guinea, Mozambique, Cabinda (Angola), Rwanda and Tanzania) the only population that did not show significant differences with Karamoja (Uganda) was Rwanda. |
