CEMB's Forensic DNA typing project is directed towards the introduction of DNA typing technique in Pakistan's criminal justice system so as to exonerate an innocent and wrongly accused person and incriminates the culprit. The present study is a part of the project of CEMB to analyze Sindhi and NWFP (North West Frontier Province) populations for five STR (Short Tandem Repeat) loci out of 13 CODIS (Combined DNA Index System) loci. Allelic frequencies and heterozygosity for STR markers D3S1358, D5S818, D7S820, D18S51 and FGA (FIBRA) were determined. Samples from unrelated individuals were amplified by multiplex PCR using the unlabelled primers for these markers followed by denaturing Polyacrylamide Gel Electrophoresis (PAGE). Statistical analysis was performed to determine the allelic frequencies and was evaluated using the Chi Square Test.

Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on the need for ethnic-specific forensic databases in Iran, specifically examining 600 Turk individuals from northwestern provinces using various STR markers to gather genetic data.
- Results showed deviations from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium in some loci and highlighted very high combined power of discrimination and exclusion values, indicating their effectiveness in identification tests.
- Comparisons with Azerbaijani and Turkish populations showed no significant differences, while notable variations were found with the Chinese Han population; overall, Iranian populations clustered closely together in genetic analyses.

This study aimed to estimate A-STR mutation rates in 2,317 Korean parent-child trios by examining 20 Combined DNA Index System (CODIS) core loci (D3S1358, D5S818, D7S820, D8S1179, D13S317, D16S539, D18S51, D21S11, CSF1PO, FGA, TH01, TPOX, vWA, D1S1656, D2S441, D2S1338, D10S1248, D12S391, D19S433, and D22S1045) and three non-CODIS loci (Penta E, Penta D, and SE33). Locus-specific mutation rate estimates varied from 0.00 to 8.

Short tandem repeat (STR) typing has been regularly used in paternity disputes and forensic human identification linked caseworks. Occasionally, forensic scientists come across aberrant allele patterns during STR typing because of mutations, genetic variations, and other abnormalities. The tri-allelic pattern of STR is rare, particularly, the case where this pattern exists at 4 loci.

Allele frequencies and forensic parameters for 21 STR autosomal markers (CSF1PO, D10S1248, D12S391, D13S317,D16S539, D18S51, D19S433, D1S1656,D21S11, D22S1045, D2S1338, D2S441, D3S1358, D5S818, D7S820, D8S1179, FGA, SE33, TH01, TPOX and vWA) were reported in 289 unrelated individuals from Mexico City, Mexico. In addition, an interpopulation analysis was performed including other world populations. In brief, the established population database of 21 autosomal STR markers in the present work is adequate for human identification purposes.
