Abstract excerpt
A short tandem repeat (STR) in the D12S391 locus was sequenced in more than 40 individuals. Twenty different alleles were found and these could be grouped into 12 allelic classes in accordance with the total number of repeats. This is a compound STR consisting of blocks of (AGAT) and (AGAC) repeats with basic sequence structure (AGAT)8-17(AGAC)6-10(AGAT)0-1. Whereas smaller alleles (15-18) have variation limited...
