[PMID: 38720934 PMCID: PMC11074882 DOI: 10.1155/2024/9125094] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/23/2023] [Revised: 03/13/2024] [Accepted: 03/16/2024] [Indexed: 05/12/2024] Open
Abstract
X-chromosome short tandem repeat (X-STR) tools are crucial in forensic genetics and human population fields. This study presents the development and validation of a multiplex STR system consisting of thirteen X-STR loci and amelogenin specific to the human X chromosome. The system was optimized and tested for species specificity, sensitivity, stability, and DNA mixture using 9947A female and 9948 male control genomic DNA. The amplified products of nine loci were sequenced to determine the correct amplicon length. Allele frequencies, forensic parameters, mean exclusion chance (MEC), linkage disequilibrium (LD), and allelic patterns were investigated using DNA samples from 225 (159 male, 66 female) unrelated Kurdish individuals who live in Sulaymaniyah province in the Kurdistan region of Iraq. The most informative locus in the Kurdish population was GATA172D05, while the least informative locus was DXS10164. The results demonstrated that the 13 X-STR system is highly polymorphic and sensitive for forensic DNA identification. Genetic distance-based clustering, metric multidimensional scaling (MDS), and correlation matrix were analyzed for 19 ethnic groups and populations. The phylogenetic tree showed that populations clustered according to their ethnogeographic relationships. The findings revealed genetic links between the Iraqi Kurds, Caucasians, Iraqi Arabs, United States (U.S.) ethnic groups, and Chinese populations.

Abstract
Short tandem repeats (STRs) are widely used as DNA markers in paternity testing and criminal investigations because of their high genetic polymorphism among individuals in population. However, many factors influence genetic variations of STRs. Therefore, understanding STR information within individual populations could provide database and scientifically reliable STR genotyping for forensic genetic purposes. We aimed to examine allele frequencies of X-STRs, including some forensic parameters, in a northern Thai population. A retrospective descriptive study was conducted by collecting X-STR data from unrelated individuals living in a northern region of Thailand. The allele frequency and forensic parameters - for example polymorphism information content (PIC), power of discrimination in females and males (PDf and PDm), mean exclusion chance (MEC) and haplotype frequency - were calculated. The Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium was analysed. A total of 132 alleles were observed, with corresponding allele frequency ranging from 0.0064 to 0.4904. The PIC of all loci was >0.6, representing high genetic polymorphism, except DXS8378 and DXS7423. Notably, DXS10135 was the most diverse loci with the highest PD and MEC, while DXS7423 was the least polymorphic marker with the lowest PD and MEC. The highest haplotype diversity in male data was on linkage group III (DXS10101-DXS10103-HPRTB) by 0.9895. The genetic distance analysis demonstrated that the northern Thai population had a close relationship with Taiwanese (DA = 0.023). There are no significant deviations among the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium except DXS10148. This study has established a northern Thai X-STRs reference database to be used as a tool for forensic genetic purposes.

Abstract
The unique structure of the X chromosome shaped by evolution has led to the present gender-specific genetic differences, which are not shared by its counterpart, the Y chromosome, and neither by the autosomes. In males, recombination between the X and Y chromosomes is limited to the pseudoautosomal regions, PAR1 and PAR2; therefore, in males, the X chromosome is (almost) entirely transmitted to female offspring. On the other hand, the X chromosome is present in females with two copies that recombine along the whole chromosome during female meiosis and that is transmitted to both female and male descendants. These transmission characteristics, besides the obvious clinical impact (sex chromosome aneuploidies are extremely frequent), make the X chromosome an irreplaceable genetic tool for population genetic-based studies as well as for kinship and forensic investigations. In the early 2000s, the number of publications using X-chromosomal polymorphisms in forensic and population genetic applications increased steadily. However, nearly 20 years later, we observe a conspicuous decrease in the rate of these publications. In light of this observation, the main aim of this article is to provide a comprehensive review of the advances and applications of X-chromosomal markers in population and forensic genetics over the last two decades. The foremost relevant topics are addressed as: (i) developments concerning the number and types of markers available, with special emphasis on short tandem repeat (STR) polymorphisms (STR nomenclatures and practical concerns); (ii) overview of worldwide population (frequency) data; (iii) the use of X-chromosomal markers in (complex) kinship testing and the forensic statistical evaluation of evidence; (iv) segregation and mutation studies; and (v) current weaknesses and future prospects.

Genetic polymorphisms and mutation rates of 16 X-STRs in a Han Chinese population of Beijing and application examples in second-degree kinship cases. Int J Legal Med 2019; 134:163-168. [PMID: 30937593 DOI: 10.1007/s00414-019-02047-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/10/2018] [Accepted: 03/19/2019] [Indexed: 10/27/2022]
Abstract
As a supplementary tool in forensic cases, X chromosomal short tandem repeats (X-STRs) might bridge large pedigree gaps and bring inspiration to forensic practices for the special mode of inheritance. To standardize the application of X-STRs, the DNA Commission of the International Society for Forensic Genetics (ISFG) presented recommendations concentrating on biostatistical evaluations. Following this guideline, in this study, 1247 (655 females and 592 males) unrelated individuals and 770 families originating from a Han Chinese population of Beijing were investigated with 16 X-STRs. The combined PDF and PDM were 0.999999999999994 and 0.999999997, respectively. The combined MECKrüger, MECKishida, MECDesmarais, and MECDesmarais duo were 0.999972736708864, 0.999999975670766, 0.999999975720931, and 0.999993489709197, respectively. In addition, a population comparison demonstrated that genetic heterogeneity widely exists between the Han population of Beijing and other populations, especially southern Han Chinese, European, and West African populations. Additionally, the overall mutation rates of the paternal and maternal germlines of the 16 X-STRs were 0.0021 and 0.0003, respectively. Among them, HPRTB showed the highest paternal mutation rate of 0.0094. Finally, based on these forensic parameters, the likelihood ratios of four second-degree kinship cases were evaluated. Comparing with autosomal STR, X-STR showed significant advantages for hypothesis exclusion. Our study indicated that the 16 X-STR loci are highly polymorphic in the Han population of Beijing and could be a satisfactory complimentary tool for forensic applications.

Abstract
In the present study, the genetic variations of 17 X-STR markers (DXS8378, DXS9898, DXS7133, GATA31E08, GATA172D05, DXS6801, DXS7423, DXS6809, DXS6799, DXS7132, DXS9902, DXS6800, DXS6789, DXS10075, DXS10079, DXS6807, and DXS6803) were analyzed in 139 unrelated individuals in Nabeul, aiming to perform an X-STR database for anthropological and forensic purposes. Our results indicate that DXS6809 was the most polymorphic locus, whereas DXS6807 was the least informative marker. In addition, the obtained values for the statistical parameters of forensic interest, i.e., the power of discrimination in males (PDM) and females (PDF), as well as the mean exclusion chance in duos (MECD) and trios (MECT) have demonstrated that this panel of 17 X-STRs is highly informative and useful for forensic application and anthropological research. Additionally, pairwise genetic distances based on FST were calculated between Nabeul population and other populations extracted from the literature. Genetic distances were represented in a non-metric MDS plot and clustering of populations according to their geographic locations and their historical relationship was detected.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The Xibe population is one of China's officially recognised populations and is now distributed separately from west to east in the northern part of China. X-chromosomal short tandem repeats have a special inheritance pattern, and could be used as complements in forensic application, especially for complex or deficiency cases. SUBJECTS AND METHODS This study obtained the allelic and haplotypic frequencies of 19 X-STR loci in the Xibe population from Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, China, and studied the genetic differentiations between the Xibe and other populations. RESULTS The combined power of discrimination in females and males and mean exclusion chances in deficiency cases, normal trios and duo cases was at least 0.999 999 994. In the haplotypic study, the Xibe population showed a more similar pattern of haplotype distribution with Asian populations than populations from other continents, while allelic study also indicated a closer relationship between the Xibe and Asian populations. CONCLUSIONS The 19 X-STR loci would be useful in forensic application in the studied population. The Xibe population showed a closer genetic relationship with Asian populations in the study, and more population data would be necessary for more detailed genetic relationship studies.

Abstract
A new 19 X- short tandem repeat (STR) multiplex PCR system has recently been developed, though its applicability in forensic studies has not been thoroughly assessed. In this study, 932 unrelated individuals from four Chinese ethnic groups (Han, Tibet, Uighur and Hui) were successfully genotyped using this new multiplex PCR system. Our results showed significant linkage disequilibrium between markers DXS10103 and DXS10101 in all four ethnic groups; markers DXS10159 and DXS10162, DXS6809 and DXS6789, and HPRTB and DXS10101 in Tibetan populations; and markers DXS10074 and DXS10075 in Uighur populations. The combined powers of discrimination in males and females were calculated according to haplotype frequencies from allele distributions rather than haplotype counts in the relevant population and were high in four ethnic groups. The cumulative powers of discrimination of the tested X-STR loci were 1.000000000000000 and 0.999999999997940 in females and males, respectively. All 19 X-STR loci are highly polymorphic. The highest Reynolds genetic distances were observed for the Tibet-Uighur pairwise comparisons. This study represents an extensive report on X-STR marker variation in minor Chinese populations and a comprehensive analysis of the diversity of these 19 X STR markers in four Chinese ethnic groups.

Abstract
X-chromosome short tandem repeats (X-STR) analysis has been confirmed to be effective for kinship testing such as in deficiency paternity cases. The aim of this study was to develop a new multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) system that can simultaneously amplify 9 X-STR loci (GATA172D05, DXS10159, DXS6797, HPRTB, DXS10079, DXS6789, DXS9895, DXS10146 and GATA31E08) in the same PCR reaction, and to obtain the database of the 9 X-STR loci in three ethnic populations in China. The genetic data of 815 (404 females and 411 males) unrelated Han Chinese from Hubei province, and Yi and Zhuang Chinese from Yunnan province were analyzed by using this multiplex system. The results showed that a total of 93 alleles for all these loci were found, and 7 to 20 alleles for each locus were observed. All of the analyzed loci were in agreement with Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium after Bonferroni correction in the three studied populations. The polymorphism information content (PIC) and power of discrimination (PD) in females were 0.6566-0.8531 and 0.8639-0.9684, respectively. Pairwise comparisons of allele frequency distribution showed significant differences in the most of these loci between different populations. The results indicate that this multiplex system is very useful for forensic analysis of different ethnic populations in China.
