Autosomal and Y chromosomal short tandem repeat (STR)makers and mitochondrial non-coding region (HV I AND HV II) sequences are routinely used currently,These markers are highly informative because of the large number of alleles within various populations andthe established database of different population groups. However, STR markers are limited by their highmutation rate, difficulty with regards to multiplexing, and the need for large amplification products, whichlimits the use of degraded samples in forensic cases.Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have been promoted as useful genetic markers for humanidentification recently. Single nucleotide polymorphisms have low mutation rates and rely on shortamplicons (i.e., less than 150bp), which allow for the use of degraded DNA samples in forensic case workand high-throughput genotyping technologies. Several studies have described preliminary SNP panels,containing autosomal, sex chromosomal or mitochondrial SNP markers, for use in human identification andparentage testing. Furthermore, selecting a SNP with high heterozygosity and low differences in allelefrequency for an individual population group or for all population is important for the development of anefficient SNP marker system with high discrimination power.The aim of our study is to establish sets of mitochondrial, autosomal, and sex chromosomal SNP markersarray system with 50~70 high heterozygosity for human identification and parentage testing in differentpopulation groups.We will collect DNA samples of 12 cell-lines from CEPH families and 1000 DNA samples from theunrelated volunteer donors living in Taiwan.In the first year, DNA samples will be collected. A set of array with fifty to seventy candidate autosomalSNP loci will be established and analyzed in our 1000 DNA samples and DNA samples of cell lines.Validation will be performed in 100 forensic DNA samples with degraded DNA. For the second year, a setof array with 50-70 candidate sex-chromosomal SNP loci will be established and analyzed in our 1000 DNAsamples and DNA samples of cell lines. Validation will be performed in 100 forensic DNA samples withdegraded DNA. In the third year, a set of array with 50-70 candidate SNP loci of mitochondrial DNA will beestablished and analyzed in our 1000 DNA samples and DNA samples of cell lines. Then, validation will beperformed in 100 forensic DNA samples with degraded DNA. Database of these mitochondrial, autosomaland sex-chromosomal SNP markers will be established.The results will be reported. Our findings will present that highly polymorphic SNP markers have a highcombined power of identity (CPI) value and high discrimination power for parentage testing and humanidentification, respectively. In addition, highly informative SNP markers with high heterogeneity will beproved to be sufficient for human identification in diverse human populations.單一核苷酸多型性人身鑑別晶片分析single nucleotide polymorphismhuman identificationarrayDevelopment of Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms Based Forensic Identification System=發展以單核苷酸多型性為基礎的法醫人身鑑別系統
