Abstract excerpt
Isolated father/child mismatches in cases with a high probability of paternity (W > 99.9%) have been investigated using short tandem repeat (STR) systems. According to the high probability of paternity new mutations could be assumed in these cases. A new mutation could be observed in 3 cases using the STR system HumACTBP2. Two of these cases showed a deletion and 1 case an insertion of 1 repeat (AAAG-motif) which...
