Population differences of two coding SNPs in pigmentation-related genes SLC24A5 and SLC45A2.

International journal of legal medicine - 1 Jan 2007

Soejima Mikiko, Koda Yoshiro

Abstract excerpt

The two genes SLC24A5 and SLC45A2 were recently identified as major determinants of pigmentation in humans and in other vertebrates. The allele p.A111T in the former gene and the allele p.L374F in the latter gene are both nearly fixed in light-skinned Europeans, and can therefore be considered ancestry informative marker (AIMs). AIMs are becoming useful for forensic identification of the phenotype from a DNA...
