Allele frequencies of 6 STR loci (TH01, TPOX, CSF1PO, D13S317, D16S539 and D7S820) in São Tomé e Príncipe (West Africa)

摘要

Allele frequencies of six autosomal short tandem repeat (STR) markers(TH01, TPOX, CSF1PO, D13S317, D7S820 and D16S539) were estimated in apopulation sample (N=53-85) of unrelated individuals from São Tomé e Principe(West Africa). No deviations from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium were observed forall loci. Allele frequency distribution and heterozygosity values were similar withthose from other sub-Saharan African populations.
