[Genetic polymorphisms of Penta D and E loci in Korean racial Chinese of Yanbian area in China].
OBJECTIVE
To analyze genetic polymorphisms of Penta D and E loci in Korean racial Chinese of Yanbian area.


METHODS
One hundred unrelated individuals of Korean racial Chinese were analyzed by methods of PCR and restriction fragment length polymorphism.


RESULTS
Eight alleles and 22 genotypes were observed from Penata D locus, and 16 alleles and 35 genotypes were observed from Penta E locus.


CONCLUSIONS
The distribution of two locus genotypes in Korean racial Chinese of Yanbian area met Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. And the obtained data can be used to individual identity, paternity testing and the study of Korean ethnic group of Chinese population.
