Abstract excerpt
The analysis of short tandem repeats (STR) by PCR is a useful technique widely used in DNA identification. Some loci have alleles differing in the number of complete repeat units, whereas others are polymorphic with alleles differing even to the level of a single base. Minor differences in the sequence of STR can confuse the analysis when the PCR product are poorly resolved in denaturing PAGE. The study by SSCP...
