Did you kill (rape) that person?
How DNA can definitively say.
Adapted from:
1980 - Ray White describes first polymorphic RFLP (Restriction Fragment Length
Polymorphism) markerdetect to transferring to membrane. Probe w
southern blot (radiological). Diff. RFLP for dif. People. Single rflp
1985 - Alec Jeffreys discovers multilocus VNTR (variable number
of tandem repeats) probes (stat. very impressive identical 4-6 bp
that are spec. 7 and 9 repeat, one from mom and dad, on chrom. 1nowadays use pcr- but flanking sequence that is unique to
chromo1)). Jeffreys almost ident. Typing. Now use PCR.
1985 - first paper on PCR (Kerry Mullis)
1988 - FBI starts DNA casework
1991 - first STR paper ( renaming of VNTR could be larger
repeats, STR 4-6 bps. now using mostly 4 bases )
1995 - FSS (Forensic Science Service-UK) starts UK DNA
database
1998 - FBI launches CODIS (Combined DNA Information
Service) database. Now FBI use 13 loci: PCR identifies it: in the
quadrilians except for identical.

7 repeats
8 repeats
the repeat region is variable between samples while the
flanking regions where PCR primers bind are constant
Homozygote = both alleles are the same length
Heterozygote = alleles differ and can be resolved from one another
Diff. PCR primers sets, can amplify the same region. Different companies sell different kits.

Ranges
Most rxns: require 2 PCR (tubes) 7 or 8
primer pairs in one tube need total of
about 2 tubes for 13 different STRs.
$20-$25 per rxn in lab. $150 incl
labor. Cost for forensic up to $1000.
