Forensic characteristics and population genetics of Chinese Kazakh ethnic minority with an efficient STR panel.

ABSTRACT: On the purpose of enhancing the forensic efficiency of CODIS STR loci, new STR loci have been gradually discovered and developed into some commercial multiplex systems. Recently, 22 STR loci including 18 non-CODIS STR loci and four CODIS STR loci were investigated in 501 unrelated healthy individuals of Kazakh ethnic group. Seven to 20 alleles at the different loci were identified and altogether 276 alleles for 22 selected loci were detected with the corresponding allelic frequencies ranging from 0.0010 to 0.3623. No significant deviation was observed from the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium test for any of the 22 STRs. The value of cumulative power of discrimination in Kazakh group was 1-1.00E-28. Analyses of population differentiations and genetic distances between Kazakh and other Chinese groups presented that the Kazakh group with the Uygur group. These 22 STR loci evenly distributed on 22 different autosomal chromosomes were characterized by high genetic diversities and therefore could be utilized in the forensic cases to further increase the discrimination performance.

Project description:ObjectiveTo study the correlation of β2-AR gene 5'-regulatory region SNPs and essential hypertension (EH) in Chinese Kazakh ethnic minority group.MethodsThe Sequenom MassArray(®) SNP detection technology was used to detect β2-AR gene 5'-regulatory region SNPs in 150 Xinjiang Kazakh EH patients and 150 controls. Biochemical analyzer was used to detect lipid and other related biochemical parameters. SHEsis and other software were used to analyze linkage disequilibrium and haplotype.ResultsSix loci rs205304 (-1023G/A), rs17108803 (-893T/G), rs12654778 (-654G/A), rs11168070 (-468C/G), rs11959427 (-367C/T) and rs2895795 (-1429T/A) polymorphisms of β2-AR gene 5'-regulatory region were found in the Xinjiang Kazakh populations. While, there was no significant difference between EH group and NH in genotypes and allele frequency of rs2053044, rs12654778, rs2895795, rs17108803 and rs11959427 (P>0.05). However; significant differences were detected of rs11168070 genotypes and allele frequency in two groups (P<0.05). Analysis of the linkage disequilibrium and haplotype in Kazakh population, there is a strong linkage disequilibrium of rs11168070, rs2053044, rs2895795 gene polymorphism in the EH group, and rs11168070, rs12654778, rs17108803 gene polymorphism in controls. Frequency of haplotype GTCCAT, GACTGT and ATGCGT in EH group was higher (P<0.05), while frequency of ATCTGT, ATGTGT, GTCCGT, GTCTAT, GACCAT and GTCTGT in the EH group was significantly lower than the control (P<0.05).Conclusionsβ2-AR gene 5'-regulatory region of rs11168070, rs2053044, rs17108803, rs12654778, rs11959427 and rs2895795 genetic polymorphism exists in Kazakh. Among them, rs11168070 locus genotype and allele frequency distribution in the two groups are significant differences. In six polymorphic loci, there is a strong linkage disequilibrium, which haplotypes GTCCAT, GACTGT, ATGCGT are risk factors of EH, and the ATCTGT, ATGTGT, GTCCGT, GTCTAT, GACCAT, GTCTGT are protective factors.

Project description:Abstract Sichuan Province is located at the transitional junction regions of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and the low-altitude plains. It also serves as the corridor of Sino-Tibetan-speaking population migration and expansion since neolithic expansion of Proto-Tibeto-Burman populations from Middle/Upper Yellow River during Majiayao period (3300–2000 BC). However, the population structure and the corresponding genetic diversity of forensic-related markers in this region remain unclear. Thus, we genotyped 30 insertion-deletion (InDel) markers in 444 samples from four ethnic groups (Han, Tibetan, Hui and Yi) from Sichuan Province using the Investigator® DIPplex kit to explore the characteristics of population genetics and forensic genetic focuses. All the loci were found to be in Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium (HWE) after applying a Bonferroni correction and no pairwise loci showed prominent linkage disequilibrium. The combined matching probability (CMP) and the combined power of discrimination (CPD) are larger than 1.8089 × 10−11 and 0.99999999995, respectively. Principal component analysis, multi-dimensional scaling plots and Neighbour-Joining tree among 65 worldwide populations indicated that Sichuan Hui and Han are genetically close to Hmong-Mien and Tai-Kadai-speaking populations, and Sichuan Tibetan and Yi bear a strong genetic affinity with Tibeto-Burman-speaking populations. The model-based genetic structure further supports the genetic affinity between the studied populations and linguistically close populations. Key Points Forensic parameters of 30 insertion-deletions (InDels) in 444 individuals from four populations are reported, which showed abundant genetic affinity and diversity among populations and high value in personal identification. Genetic similarities existed between the studied populations and ethnically, linguistically close populations. Sichuan Hui and Han are genetically close to Hmong-Mien and Tai-Kadai-speaking populations. Sichuan Tibetan and Yi bear a strong genetic affinity with Tibeto-Burman-speaking populations.
