Analysis of the short tandem repeat systems HUMF13B and HUMvWF in Chinese (Liaoning).
The short tandem repeat (STR) systems HUMF13B and HUMvWF were investigated in 200 healthy Chinese individuals living in Liaoning (The northeast of China). The HUMF13B allele frequencies were 6 = 0.0025, 8 = 0.1825, 9 = 0.1750, 10 = 0.6325 and 11 = 0.0075; and the HUMvWF allele frequencies were 13 = 0.0300, 14 = 0.2475, 15 = 0.0450, 16 = 0.1750, 17 = 0.2600, 18 = 0.1525, 19 = 0.0725 and 20 = 0.0175. The distribution of genotypes corresponded to the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. The distinguishing probabilities (D.P) were calculated as 0.7318 and 0.9366; the polymorphism information content (PIC) were calculated as 0.4827 and 0.7822; and the heterozygosity (h) were calculated as 0.5378 and 0.8128, respectively. The HUMF13B and HUMvWF systems provide a useful genetic marker for human genetics, anthropological studies, and forensic science in the chinese population.
