Prediction of consanguinity using human DNA fingerprints.
DNA fingerprinting was performed to verify the pedigree structure of a family under investigation for an unusual case of beta thalassaemia. A higher than expected proportion of hypervariable bands was shared by the proband and his mother, leading to suspicion that the child had been the product of a consanguineous mating. Further analysis of the mother's brother showed that he was almost certai...
متن کاملAnalysis of Diatom Blooms Using DNA Fingerprints
The premise that guides my research is that phytoplankton community dynamics reflect a complicated interaction between environmental variability and the inherent genetic and physiological variation present within individual species of phytoplankton. My goal is to determine how genetic and physiological diversity is maintained within individual species of diatoms and how this diversity is shaped...
متن کاملPrediction of heterosis from DNA fingerprints in chickens.
To assess the value of DNA fingerprints for the prediction of heterosis in chickens, retrospective analyses of data from three crossbreeding experiments and DNA fingerprints (DEP) of parental strains were conducted using two minisatellite and one middle-repetitive DNA probes. DEP bands were assessed on pooled DNA samples of 10-15 individuals per parental genetic group. The number of DEP bands e...
متن کاملDna "fingerprints" and Their Statistical Analysis in Human Populations
In 1985 the concept of a "DNA fingerprint" was introduced as a means of evaluating human identity and relatednes. (Jeffreys, Wilson, & Thein, 1985). The possible forensic and legal applications of DNA evidence were quickly appreciated and such data are now frequently presented in court cases involving serious crimes such as murder and rape. DNA evidence is also used in establishing paternity, i...
متن کاملPrediction-based fingerprints of protein-protein interactions.
The recognition of protein interaction sites is an important intermediate step toward identification of functionally relevant residues and understanding protein function, facilitating experimental efforts in that regard. Toward that goal, the authors propose a novel representation for the recognition of protein-protein interaction sites that integrates enhanced relative solvent accessibility (R...
