Digital DNA typing at a second hypervariable locus by minisatellite variant repeat mapping.

Human molecular genetics - 1 Aug 1993

Neil D L, Jeffreys A J

Abstract excerpt

Minisatellite variant repeat unit mapping by PCR (MVR-PCR) assays the interspersion pattern of variant repeat units along minisatellite alleles. Mapping such internal variation in the highly polymorphic minisatellite MS31A (locus D7S21), reveals extreme levels of allelic variability, far in exces...
