A novel approach to study polymorphism of microsatellite loci in humans

Short tandem repeats (STRs) or microsatellite DNA are blocks of tandem repeat units of 1 to 6 base pairs (bp) that are ubiquitous, abundant, and highly polymorphic in eukaryotic genomes. Due to their highly polymorphic nature, they are used as markers for human identity testing, disease diagnostics,...
