Abstract excerpt
Amplified alleles at the PLA2 short tandem repeat locus were sequenced and analyzed using different combinations of the PCR primer. When changing one side of the primers from the previous design to our original one, additional alleles, which had been previously hidden, could be newly detected in two out of 60 DNA samples of unrelated Japanese individuals. The sequence data revealed both 'hidden alleles' to be...
