Abstract

In order to be utilized as a database in forensic identification and parentage test, allelic frequency and genotype distribution of short tandem repeat(STR) F13B locus was analysed by polymerase chain reaction in 210 Korean adults who are not related. The results were as follows. 1. 3 alleles and 56 genotypes of F13B locus were detected and heterozygosity value was 48.6% and allelic diversity value was 0.639 and the power of discrimination was 0.804. 2. The observed each alleles and allelic frequency was 8(0.069), 9(0.193), 10(0.738). In conclusion, the allelic frequency of STR F13B locus in the Korean is considered as an useful DNA allelic profile for forensic identification, but it should be used with several other STR locus to get definitive conclusion of analysis for individual identification and parentage testing.
