Abstract excerpt
Short tandem repeat (STR) markers DXS6801 (GATA41B11), DXS6809 (GATA69B129) and DXS6789 (GATA31F01) are located in a 3-Mb region on human chromosome Xq21, spanning approximately 3-6 cM. Theoretically, this cluster could give rise to 1,144 different haplotypes in the German population. In fact, genotyping of 806 males revealed the presence of 207 different haplotypes. Since the three STRs have been shown to be in...
