Short tandem repeat typing technologies used in human identity testing.
Short tandem repeat (STR) typing methods are widely used today for human identity testing applications including forensic DNA analysis. Following multiplex PCR amplification, DNA samples containing the length-variant STR alleles are typically separated by capillary electrophoresis and genotyped by comparison to an allelic ladder supplied with a commercial kit. This article offers a brief perspe...
متن کاملShort tandem repeat analysis for human identity testing.
Short tandem repeat (STR) typing has become the workhorse of modern forensic DNA analysis. The most common form of STR typing uses laser-induced fluorescence detection of dye-labeled polymerase chain reaction (PCR) products following capillary electrophoresis (CE) size-based separation. This unit describes the techniques and marker systems most widely used around the world in constructing crimi...
متن کاملGenetics and genomics of core short tandem repeat loci used in human identity testing.
Over the past decade, the human identity testing community has settled on a set of core short tandem repeat (STR) loci that are widely used for DNA typing applications. A variety of commercial kits enable robust amplification of these core STR loci. A brief history is presented regarding the selection of core autosomal and Y-chromosomal STR markers. The physical location of each STR locus in th...
متن کاملSTRBase: a short tandem repeat DNA database for the human identity testing community
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has compiled and maintained a Short Tandem Repeat DNA Internet Database (http://www.cstl.nist.gov/biotech/++ +strbase/) since 1997 commonly referred to as STRBase. This database is an information resource for the forensic DNA typing community with details on commonly used short tandem repeat (STR) DNA markers. STRBase consolidates and or...
متن کاملHuman tandem repeat sequences in forensic DNA typing.
It has been 20 years since the first development of DNA fingerprinting and the start of forensic DNA typing. Ever since, human tandem repeat DNA sequences have been the main targets for forensic DNA analysis. These repeat sequences are classified into minisatellites (or VNTRs) and microsatellites (or STRs). In this brief review, we discuss the historical and current forensic applications of suc...
