Forensic value of 14 novel STRs on the human Y chromosome.
We identified and characterized 14 novel short-tandem-repeats (STRs) on the Y chromosome and typed them in two samples, a globally diverse panel of 73 cell lines, and 148 individuals from a European-American population. These Y-STRs include eight tetranucleotide repeats (DYS449, DYS453, DYS454, DYS455, DYS456, DYS458, DYS459, and DYS464), five pentanucleotide repeats (DYS446, DYS447, DYS450, DY...
متن کاملY Chromosome-Specific STRs
The Y chromosome is one of the smallest human chromosomes with an average size of 60 million base pairs (Mb). Between X and Y chromosomes, exchange is limited to small pseudoautosomal regions (PAR) of the X-Y pair (see Figure 1). During male meiosis, recombination only takes place at the most distal short arm (PAR 1) and at the tip of the Y chromosome long arm (PAR 2). For most of its length (t...
متن کاملI-49: Human Y Chromosome ProteomeProject
The success of the Human Genome Project (HGP) has provided a blueprint for the approximately 20,000 gene-encoded proteins potentially active in all of the hundreds of cell types that make up the human body. Yet we still have limited knowledge about a majority of the gene-encoded proteins which are the “building blocks of life” and “cellular machinery”. It is estimated that for nearly half of th...
متن کاملY Chromosome STR Analysis in Forensic Practice
Currently, the gradual introduction and routine application of validated Y chromosomal STR systems in stain analysis is being experienced. These systems are powerful forensic tools especially for the area of sexual assault evidence and are superior to autosomal systems for two reasons: the differential cell lysis step prior to the PCR is replaced by a sex chromosome selection during PCR and the...
متن کاملThe human Y chromosome.
Despite its central role in sex determination, genetic analysis of the Y chromosome has been slow. This poor progress has been due to the paucity of available genetic markers. Whereas the X chromosome is known to include at least 100 functional genetic loci, only three or four loci have been ascribed to the Y chromosome and even the existence of several of these loci is controversial. Other fac...
