A single mutation in the FGA locus responsible for false homozygosities and discrepancies between commercial kits in an unusual paternity test case.

Journal of forensic sciences - 1 Mar 2007

Abstract excerpt

We report an unusual paternity test case showing multiple peculiarities. Using AmpFlSTR Profiler Plus and AmpFlSTR Identifiler PCR Amplification kits, the alleged father and the two children were apparently homozygous at the FGA locus, but using the PowerPlex 16 kit the three individuals were found to be heterozygous. Drop-out was caused by a single mutation event in the presumptive binding site of the reverse...
