Brief History of Forensic DNA Typing
• 1980 - Ray White describes first polymorphicRFLP marker
• 1985 - Alec Jeffreys discovers multilocus VNTR probes
• 1985 - first paper on PCR• 1988 - FBI starts DNA casework• 1991 - first STR paper• 1995 - FSS starts UK DNA database• 1998 - FBI launches CODIS database

DNA Use in Forensic Cases
• Most are rape cases (>2 out of 3)• Looking for match between evidence
and suspect• Must compare victim’s DNA profile
•Mixtures must be resolved
•DNA is often degraded
•Inhibitors to PCR are often present
Challenges

Human Identity Testing
• Forensic cases -- matching suspect with evidence
• Paternity testing -- identifying father
• Historical investigations• Missing persons investigations• Mass disasters -- putting pieces back together
• Military DNA “dog tag”• Convicted felon DNA databases

Short Tandem Repeats (STRs)
the repeat region is variable between samples while the flanking regions where PCR primers bind are constant
7 repeats
8 repeats
AATG
Homozygote = both alleles are the same length
Heterozygote = alleles differ and can be resolved from one another

Multiplex PCR• Over 10 Markers Can Be
Copied at Once• Sensitivities to levels less than
1 ng of DNA• Ability to Handle Mixtures
and Degraded Samples• Different Fluorescent Dyes
Used to Distinguish STR Alleles with Overlapping Size Ranges
