Abstract excerpt
Variation in internal minisatellite structure can be analyzed by mapping variant repeat units within amplified alleles. A system capable of distinguishing greater than 10(70) allelic states at the human hypervariable locus D1S8 has been developed. Population surveys of internal allelic structure indicate that D1S8 alleles evolve rapidly along haploid chromosome lineages. Internal mapping of deletion mutant...
