Population-dependent migration shift caused by sequence variation at the alpha fibrinogen (FGA) short tandem repeat (STR) locus.

Forensic science international - 1 Sept 2020

Abstract excerpt

The alpha fibrinogen (FGA) is a core short tandem repeat (STR) locus commonly used in forensic laboratories and is part of most of the commercial multiplex forensic STR kits. There are two distinct groups of FGA alleles based on their size: alleles 16-34.2 and 42.2-51.2. A thorough survey revealed that the long (>33) FGA alleles appear exclusively in populations of sub-Saharan Africans, Caribbean of African...
