[Genetic polymorphism of penta e locus in four Chinese nationalities].
To study the genetic polymorphism of Penta E locus in four Chinese nationalities using home made reagent kits, DNA samples were obtained from about 400 unrelated peoples of four different Chinese nationalities. As a result, we found 20 alleles in the four nationalities with frequencies ranging from 0.0048 to 0.2396. The genotype frequencies of Penta E locus met Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. It proved that Penta E locus was a high polymorphic STR genetic marker and was valuable for forensic science.
