Abstract

The presence of more than one DNA contributor in an evidentiary sample may preclude attempts to use forensic genetic genealogy to develop an investigative lead. To address this issue, we developed a workflow for deconvolution of SNP mixtures into single source profiles that are suitable for matching against a genealogical database. Using the method, two-contributor DNA mixtures assayed using a commercial SNP typing kit can produce informative match results for both major and minor contributors.

一种能够从DNA混合物中进行法医遗传谱系调查的方法

证据样本中存在一个以上的DNA贡献者，可能会阻止使用法医遗传谱系学来开发调查线索的尝试。为了解决这个问题，我们开发了一个工作流程，将SNP混合物反褶积为适合与系谱数据库匹配的单一源剖面。使用该方法，使用商业SNP分型试剂盒测定的两个贡献者DNA混合物可以产生主要和次要贡献者的信息匹配结果。
