In this paper, researchers examine the forensic nomenclature for STR loci D6S474 and DYS612.
In this study on forensic nomenclature for STR loci D6S474 and DYS612, researchers review the forensic literature and other relevant information and then provide suggestions for the future treatment of each STR. The autosomal STR D6S474 and the Y-chromosomal STR DYS612 have been reported in multiple ways in the forensic literature, with differences in both the bracketed repeat structures and counting of numerical length-based capillary electrophoresis (CE) alleles. These issues often come to light when STR loci are introduced in commercial assays and results compared with historical publications of allele frequency data, or multiple assays are characterized with reference materials.
