[Genetic structure of STR in Naci ethnic group in China].

STR is a universal genetic marker that has changeable polymorphism and stable heredity in human genome. It is a specific DNA segment composed of 2-7 base pairs as its core sequence, and is formed through the repeated connection of the same one. Since it has the characteristics such as numerous allelic genes, highly heterozygosity and easy recognition and short PCR segment, it is employed as an ideal DNA marker in such practical fields as human genetics and forensic medicine. In this study, we investigated the polymorphism of STR of Naci minority with STR genescan marked by fluorescence. Seventy-two alleles of 9 STR in Naci were detected with their frequency 0.0052-0.5208 and 165 genotypes were found out with frequency 0.0104-0.3021. Hi-Square test indicated the distribution of genotypes agreed with Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (P > 0.05). Statistical analysis showed the followings: the heterozygosity (H) > 0.6 in each locus, the average polymorphism information content (PIC) > 0.7, Mean discrimination power (DP) > 0.8, probability of paternity exclusion (EPP) > 0.5, indicating that the STR markers used in the study were of great value in the researches of minority genetics. This not only founds the base for genetic structures of STR of Chinese but also provides valuable information for anthropology, forensic medicine and ethnology.

[STR polymorphisms in four Xinjiang ethnic groups in China].

Population genetic studies were performed in Xinjiang's Uygur, Sibe, Ozbek and Kirgiz. Allele frequency distributions were analyzed for ten loci, i.e., D3S1358, VWA, CSF1PO, FGA, THO1, TPOX, D5S818, D13S317 and D7S820 by GeneScan. The results showed that there were 66 STR alleles and 148 genotypes in Uygur; 72 STR alleles and 163 genotypes in Sibe; 65 STR alleles and 168 genotypes in Ozbek; 71 STR alleles and 191 genotypes in Kirgiz. Significant differences were identified among ethnic groups (African-American, US-Caucasian and Chinese-Oriental), but similarity was found among the four Xinjiang population. These findings indicated that the nine STR loci and Amelogenin locus were very useful for individual identification in forensic science. It is further certified that Chinese nationality is a whole.

[Studies of STR polymorphisms in Pumi and Lisu minorities in China].

In this study, we investigated the polymorphisms of STR of Pumi and Lisu minorities with STR genescan marked by fluorescence. Eighty-five alleles of 9 STR in Pumi were detected with the frequency 0.0050-0.5250 and 194 genotypes were found with frequency of 0.0098-0.3235. Sixty three alleles with their frequency of 0.0050-0.4802 and 145 genotypes were found out with frequency of 0.0099-0.3664 in Lisu population. Hi-Square test indicated the distribution of genotypes agreed with Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (P > 0.05). Statistical analysis showed the followings: H > 0.6 in each locus, the average PIC > 0.7, mean DP > 0.8, EPP > 0.5, indicating the STR markers used in the study were of great value in the researches on minority genetics.

[Polymorphism of nine STR locus in Nu population from Yunnan Province].

In this study,blood samples were randomly drawn from 84 unrelated Nu individuals. The polymorphism of nine STR loci and Amelogenin locus were determined by DNA GeneScan. The genetic database on the distribution of gene frequency on the nine STR loci was established, statistical results showed that the genotype distributions were in agreement with Hardy-Weinberg equation. Compared with other population,the results in our study were of great value in human DNA genetic data instant method with the characteristics of precision and sensitivity.

[Genetic polymorphisms of 9 STR loci in Dongxiang ethnic group of China].

Genetic distribution for nine STR loci was determined in a Chinese Dongxing ethnic group based on STR genescan marked by fluorescence. Seventy-two alleles and 182 genotypes were observed in 94 unrelated Chinese Dongxiang individuals,with the corresponding gene frequency and genotype frequency being 0.0053-0.5825 and 0.0106-0.2660 respectively. The genotypes of nine STR loci were in accordance with the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (P>0.05). The statistical analysis of nine STR loci showed PIC (polymorphism information content, PIC) = or > 0.6378, H(heterozygosity, H) = or > 0.6500, DP (discrimination power, DP) = or > 0.8216, PPE (probabilities of paternity exculation, PPE) = or > 0.4903. The result indicated that there was a significant difference between Dongxiang ethnic group and the white and the black. There was no significant difference in Han nationality. These result filled the Dongxiang ethnic group-a specific group of Chinese into the genetic database and played an important role in Chinese population genetic study and forensic medicine application.
