Abstract:
:In a Japanese population study of the D1S80 locus 24 alleles ranging from allele 16 to allele43 were analysed using PCR-RFLP. As two repeat units were found to contain the restriction cleavage site (CCAGG) for EcoRII, we digested the alleles with EcoRII, separated the digested fragments on polyacrylamide gels and stained with ethidium bromide. Of the 24 alleles 11 band patterns were identified and tentatively labeled E1 to E11. A total of 42 subtypes were detected in a population group of 111 unrelated individuals. All samples of allele 18 were of the E3 type, while about 60% of the allele24 samples were of the E4 type and about 40% were of the E8 type. The third most frequent allele (allele30) contained four types, E4, E8, E5 and E6. No deviations from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium were observed. Since this method could differentiate those samples which had the same length but different sequences, it is quite useful for paternity testing and individual identification.
