Applying highly polymorphic variable number of tandem repeats loci genetic markers to identity testing.

Clinical biochemistry - 1 Aug 1990

Budowle B, Baechtel F S, Giusti A M, Monson K L

Abstract excerpt

The detection of alleles of variable number of tandem repeats (VNTR) loci by restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis has become an important aspect of genetic characterization for identity testing. Some VNTR loci are so polymorphic that the analysis of three to five genetic markers could potentially provide unique identity. However, the more informative a genetic marker is (i.e., high degree of...
