[Population genetic Hae III/RFLP and HLA-DQ-alpha data of a Caucasian population sample in Switzerland].
DNA from unrelated individuals (Caucasians; n = 200-271) from Switzerland were digested with Hae III and successively hybridized to the DNA probes D1S7, D2S44, D4S139, D10S28, D14S13, D17S26 and D17S79. An allele frequency distribution was determined for each locus. Furthermore, from the same individuals (n = 200) after amplification of DNA the allele and genotype frequencies at the HLA-DQ alpha locus were determined. The allele frequency distribution in Swiss Caucasians is statistically similar to American Caucasian population samples. In criminal cases a DNA-profile derived from four single-locus probes always leads to a very high value of discrimination and in paternity testing the probability of paternity always exceeds 99.9% regardless to the reference population used for biostatistical evaluation. Therefore for use in forensic analysis and paternity testing pooled caucasian databases might be used for the determination of the frequency of occurrence of a DNA-profile.
