The D4S95-VNTR locus was amplified and the polymorphism analysed in a population sample of 169 randomly selected Japanese individuals. A total of 14 alleles containing 850-1360 base pairs were distinguished by agarose gel electrophoresis. The distribution of alleles was symmetrical with respect t...
