Abstract excerpt
A population study on the short tandem repeat (STR) locus D11S554 was carried out in a sample of 362 unrelated Japanese individuals living in the Gifu Prefecture. A total of 46 different alleles ranging from 180 bp to 340 bp and 135 genotypes were revealed. Sequence analysis of alleles was carried out for 185 samples. The sequence structures of the repeat regions of the alleles were found to be complex and the...
