The present study was undertaken to investigate mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) control region sequences of Hazaras from Pakistan, so as to generate mtDNA reference database for forensic casework in Pakistan and to analyze phylogenetic relationship of this particular ethnic group with geographically proximal populations. Complete mtDNA control region (nt 16024-576) sequences were generated through Sanger Sequencing for 319 Hazara individuals from Quetta, Baluchistan. The population sample set showed a total of 189 distinct haplotypes, belonging mainly to West Eurasian (51.72%), East & Southeast Asian (29.78%) and South Asian (18.50%) haplogroups. Compared with other populations from Pakistan, the Hazara population had a relatively high haplotype diversity (0.9945) and a lower random match probability (0.0085). The dataset has been incorporated into EMPOP database under accession number EMP00680. The data herein comprises the largest, and likely most thoroughly examined, control region mtDNA dataset from Hazaras of Pakistan. 相似文献

The entire mitochondrial DNA control region (nt 16024–576) of 88 unrelated individuals of Sindhi ethnic group residing in different parts of Sindh province of Pakistan was sequenced. Out of 66 different observed haplotypes 50 were unique and 16 were shared by more than one individual. Results showed admixture of mtDNA pool constituting the haplogroups derived mainly from South Asia (47.6%) and West Eurasian (35.7%) whereas the contribution of the African haplogroup was very small (2.4%). High values of genetic diversity (0.992), power of discrimination (0.981) and low value of random match probability (0.018) indicates that mtDNA analysis for this population can effectively be used for forensic casework. The results are valuable contribution towards building mtDNA population variation database for this particular ethnic group from Pakistan. 相似文献

The present study was undertaken to investigate the control region of mitochondrial DNA for forensic discrimination and to explore the ethno-linguistic affiliations among ethnic groups of Sindh province, Pakistan. A total of 115 individuals, from six major ethnic/isonym groups, namely, Bijarani, Chandio, Ghallu, Khoso, Nasrani and Solangi, have been studied. We identified 88 haplotypes, defined by the particular set of nucleotides; of these, 70 haplotypes were unique in the investigated population. In addition, 82% sequences were observed once, 12% twice and 5.2% thrice. The most common South Asian haplogroup in six ethnic groups of Sindh, are; M (42%) and R (6.9%), whereas West Eurasian haplogroups were N (6.9%), W (6.9%), J (1.7%), U (23.4%), H (9.5%) and T (0.86%). A random match probability between two unrelated individuals was found to be 0.06%, while genetic diversity varied from 0.991 to 0.998. The high nucleotide diversity and the low random match probability of the mtDNA control region make it a beneficial tool for forensic discrimination as well as useful to the evolutionary biologist. This work is an important contribution towards establishing a National Mitochondrial DNA Database in Pakistan. Currently, the Human Genetic department at the University of Health Sciences Lahore has the depository. 相似文献

Analysis of human mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) polymorphisms in the D-loop region has become a useful tool in forensic casework and matrilineal origin research. In this study, the mtDNA D-loop region including hypervariable region 1 (HV1), hypervariable region 2 (HV2), segment between HV1 and HV2 (7S DNA spanned region), and extended hypervariable region 3 (HV3ex) was sequenced in 539 unrelated individuals from eight population groups living in Taiwan. Combined analyses of the complete D-loop revealed a total of 383 haplotypes with 319 unique haplotypes. The probability of any two individuals sharing the same mtDNA haplotype decreased as the combination of control region segments extended and reached 0.48% with the combination of a complete D-loop region. Sequence variants in HV3ex can further discriminate the haplotypes in some population groups. Phylogenetic haplogroups of these subjects were analyzed. The multidimensional scaling plots of these population groups, constructed based on sequence of the complete D-loop, demonstrated a clear matrilineal genetic substructure in this area. In conclusion, this database of mtDNA complete D-loop sequence including HV3 can serve as a reference for forensic identification. Sequence polymorphisms of the D-loop located outside the HV1 and HV2 may be helpful in further haplogroup characterization. 相似文献

In an effort to facilitate forensic mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) testing in Morocco, high-quality control region sequences from 509 individuals were generated using a comprehensive processing and data review system. This large dataset of random samples from various Moroccan population groups (Arab speaking, Berber speaking, and Sahrawi speaking) exhibited a low random match probability (0.52 %) and a mean of pairwise comparisons of 13.24. The Moroccan mtDNA gene pool studied here was defined entirely by West Eurasian (58.15 %) and African haplogroups (41.85 %). 相似文献

We investigated control and coding region polymorphisms in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) in 100 unrelated individuals from a Japanese
population and determined the basal phylogenetic haplogroup lineages in all samples under updated information. Many of the
basal phylogenetic haplogroup lineages assigned on East Asian mtDNA haplogroups corresponded to those previously established.
However, new haplogroup lineages such as M7a2a, M7a2b, M7a2*, M7c1b, M11b2*, G2b*, D4c1b1a, D4g2b, A4*, A9, N9b*, B4d1, B4d2,
and F1e were identified and established by complete sequencing. Although sequence comparison of the 1.15-kb control region
identified 84 mitochondrial haplotypes, examination of coding region polymorphisms increased the total number of haplotypes
to 91. Determination of the basal haplogroup lineages increased the discrimination power of mtDNA polymorphisms for personal
identification and their usefulness in determining geographic origin in forensic casework in Japanese and other East Asian
populations. 相似文献

The immigration of diverse ethnic groups over the past centuries from surrounding countries into Thailand left footprints
in the genetic composition of Thai mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) lineages. The entire mtDNA control region (1,122 bp) was typed
in 190 unrelated male volunteers from the northern Thailand province of Chiang Mai following highest quality standards. For
a more precise haplogroup classification, selected single nucleotide polymorphisms from the mtDNA coding region were genotyped.
We found several new, so far undescribed mtDNA lineages. Quasi-median networks were constructed for visualisation of character
conflicts. The data were put into population-genetic relationships with other Southeast Asian populations. Although the frequencies
of the Thai haplogroups were characteristic for Southeast Asia in terms of haplotype composition and genetic structure, the
Thai population was significantly different from other Southeast Asian populations. This necessitates establishing regional
databases, especially for forensic applications. The population data have been submitted to the EMPOP database () and will be available on publication. 相似文献

Sequence polymorphisms of the hypervariable mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) regions HVI and HVII, and coding region polymorphisms were investigated in 211 unrelated individuals from the Japanese population. Sequence comparison of the HVI and HVII regions led to the identification of 169 mitochondrial haplotypes defined by 147 variable positions. Among them 145 types were observed in only 1 individual; the other 24 types were shared by 2 or more individuals. The gene diversity was estimated at 0.9961, and the probability of two randomly selected individuals from the population having identical mtDNA types was 0.86%. We also established phylogenetic haplogroups in the Japanese population based on the coding and control region polymorphisms and compared the haplotypes with those in other Japanese, Korean and Chinese populations. As a result, three new subhaplogroups, G4a, G4b, and N9b, and several haplotypes specific for the Japanese and Korean populations were identified. The present database can be used not only for personal identification but also as an aid for geographic or phenotype (race) estimation in forensic casework in Japan.Electronic Supplementary Material Supplementary material is available for this article if you access the article at 相似文献

Recent progress in mitochondrial DNA analysis 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
In this review, we describe the current state of knowledge of mitochondrial genetics of East Asian populations and its application to forensic science. Recent advances in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) phylogeny have identified haplogroup-specific single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and the control region motifs of haplogroups. By analyzing haplogroup-specific SNPs, we can rapidly and accurately connect the mtDNA under study to the relevant haplogroup. Haplogroups are fairly continent- and/or region-specific; therefore, we can infer the ethnic background of that mtDNA. In addition, errors in hypervariable region sequences can be detected by means of haplogroup motif analysis. 相似文献

Control region polymorphisms in the mitochondrial DNA of 124 unrelated individuals from the Malay population living in or
around Kuala Lumpur in Malaysia were investigated and phylogenetic haplogroup lineages were determined. The intergenic COII/tRNALys
9-bp deletion, 3010 and 5178 mutations, and several coding region polymorphisms were examined to discriminate some phylogenetic
haplogroups. Sequence comparison of the control regions led to the identification of 117 mitochondrial haplotypes, in which
103 types were observed in only one individual and the other nine types were shared by more than two individuals. Gene diversity
was estimated to be 0.997. Phylogenetic haplogroup determination revealed that the gene pool of the modern Malay population
in Malaysia consisted mainly of southeast Asian, east Asian, unidentified and unique, and aboriginal southeast-specific haplogroups.
These results suggest a multi-original nature for the modern Malay population. The present database may help not only in personal
identification but also in determining geographic origin in forensic casework in Malaysian, Southeast Asian and East Asian
populations. 相似文献

Mitochondrial haplogroup information can be useful in forensic contexts that rely primarily on mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) testing, which often involve limited or degraded DNA. Due to the phylogeographic patterning of mtDNA in human populations, mitochondrial haplogroups are indicative of maternal ancestry (as mtDNA is a maternally inherited marker). In certain circumstances, maternal ancestry inferred from mitochondrial haplogrouping could be beneficial to forensic investigations. For example, ancestry information could assist in the identification of unknown service members from past conflicts, such as the World War II Battle of Tarawa involving American and Japanese forces. In this context, it could be useful to distinguish Native American mtDNA from Asian mtDNA to bolster the anthropological and circumstantial evidence leading to an identification or foreign national determination. Although most of the founding Native American haplogroups contain diagnostic variants in the mitochondrial control region (CR), haplogroup B2 does not, and this makes it more difficult to distinguish B2 from the parental B4 and closely related B4b haplogroups found in Asia. In this paper, the amount of mtDNA information required to distinguish Native American haplotypes from Asian haplotypes within haplogroup B was examined. Fifty-six samples belonging to subtypes of B2 and B4 were sequenced for the entire mitogenome. Haplogroups were estimated from three ranges of mitochondrial DNA (HV1 and 2, CR, and full mitogenome). Half of the samples could not be precisely haplogrouped without full mitogenome data, although enough variants were often provided to make an accurate B2 versus B4 distinction. Native American B2 haplotypes were distinguishable using CR data alone in 82% of samples, though the remaining samples required full mitogenome data for haplogroup B2 designation. The use of full mitogenome data consistently enables accurate haplogroup determination, and opens the possibility for gaining information on maternal ancestry. 相似文献

The study presents South American mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) data from selected north (N = 98), central (N = 193) and south (N = 47) Argentinean populations. Sequence analysis of the complete mtDNA control region (CR, 16024–576) resulted in 288 unique
haplotypes ignoring C-insertions around positions 16193, 309, and 573; the additional analysis of coding region single nucleotide
polymorphisms enabled a fine classification of the described lineages. The Amerindian haplogroups were most frequent in the
north and south representing more than 60% of the sequences. A slightly different situation was observed in central Argentina
where the Amerindian haplogroups represented less than 50%, and the European contribution was more relevant. Particular clades
of the Amerindian subhaplogroups turned out to be nearly region-specific. A minor contribution of African lineages was observed
throughout the country. This comprehensive admixture of worldwide mtDNA lineages and the regional specificity of certain clades
in the Argentinean population underscore the necessity of carefully selecting regional samples in order to develop a nationwide
mtDNA database for forensic and anthropological purposes. The mtDNA sequencing and analysis were performed under EMPOP guidelines
in order to attain high quality for the mtDNA database. 相似文献

The assignment of haplogroups to mitochondrial DNA haplotypes contributes substantial value for quality control, not only in forensic genetics but also in population and medical genetics. The availability of Phylotree, a widely accepted phylogenetic tree of human mitochondrial DNA lineages, led to the development of several (semi-)automated software solutions for haplogrouping. However, currently existing haplogrouping tools only make use of haplogroup-defining mutations, whereas private mutations (beyond the haplogroup level) can be additionally informative allowing for enhanced haplogroup assignment. This is especially relevant in the case of (partial) control region sequences, which are mainly used in forensics. The present study makes three major contributions toward a more reliable, semi-automated estimation of mitochondrial haplogroups. First, a quality-controlled database consisting of 14,990 full mtGenomes downloaded from GenBank was compiled. Together with Phylotree, these mtGenomes serve as a reference database for haplogroup estimates. Second, the concept of fluctuation rates, i.e. a maximum likelihood estimation of the stability of mutations based on 19,171 full control region haplotypes for which raw lane data is available, is presented. Finally, an algorithm for estimating the haplogroup of an mtDNA sequence based on the combined database of full mtGenomes and Phylotree, which also incorporates the empirically determined fluctuation rates, is brought forward. On the basis of examples from the literature and EMPOP, the algorithm is not only validated, but both the strength of this approach and its utility for quality control of mitochondrial haplotypes is also demonstrated. 相似文献

We have established a high-quality mtDNA control region sequence database for Koreans. To identify polymorphic sites and to
determine their frequencies and haplotype frequencies, the complete mtDNA control region was sequenced in 593 Koreans, and
major length variants of poly-cytosine tracts in HV2 and HV3 were determined in length heteroplasmic individuals by PCR analysis
using fluorescence-labeled primers. Sequence comparison showed that 494 haplotypes defined by 285 variable sites were found
when the major poly-cytosine tract genotypes were considered in distinguishing haplotypes, whereas 441 haplotypes were found
when the poly-cytosine tracts were ignored. Statistical parameters indicated that analysis of partial mtDNA control region
which encompasses the extended regions of HV1 and HV2, CA dinucleotide repeats in HV3 and nucleotide position 16497, 16519,
456, 489 and 499 (HV1ex+HV2ex+HV3CA+5SNPs) and the analysis of another partial mtDNA control region including extended regions
of HV1 and HV2, HV3 region and nucleotide position 16497 and 16519 (HV1ex+HV2ex+HV3+2SNPs) can be used as efficient alternatives
for the analysis of the entire mtDNA control region in Koreans. Also, we collated the basic informative SNPs, suggested the
important mutation motifs for the assignment of East Asian haplogroups, and classified 592 Korean mtDNAs (99.8%) into various
East Asian haplogroups or sub-haplogroups. Haplogroup-directed database comparisons confirmed the absence of any major systematic
errors in our data, e.g., a mix-up of site designations, base shifts or mistypings.

The mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) haplogroup typing has become an essential tool to study human evolutionary history and to infer the matrilineal bio-geographic ancestry. In forensic field, the screening of mtDNA haplogroups by genotyping of mtDNA single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) can help guarantee the quality of mtDNA sequence data as well as can reduce the need to sequence samples that do not match. Here, a multiplex mutagenically separated (MS) polymerase chain reaction (PCR) system was developed for simultaneous rapid detection of 14 coding region SNPs and one deletion motif representing common mtDNA haplogroups of East Asia. The multiplex MS PCR system we developed has the advantage of being a one step procedure that requires only a single PCR amplification with allele-specific primers and allowing straightforward designation of haplogroups along the branches of the phylogenetic tree. Therefore, it would be a simple, rapid, and reliable detection method useful for large-scale screening of mtDNA variations to determine East Asian mtDNA haplogroups. 相似文献

Haplotype diversity in mitochondrial DNA hypervariable region in a population of southeastern Brazil
C. Fridman R. S. Gonzalez A. C. Pereira M. M. S. G. Cardena 《International journal of legal medicine》2014,128(4):589-593
Brazilian population derives from Native Amerindians, Europeans, and Africans. Southeastern Brazil is the most populous region of the country. The present study intended to characterize the maternal genetic ancestry of 290 individuals from southeastern (Brazil) population. Thus, we made the sequencing of the three hypervariable regions (HV1, HV2, and HV3) of the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). The statistical analyses were made using Arlequin software, and the median-joining haplotype networks were generated using Network software. The analysis of three hypervariable regios showed 230 (79.3 %) unique haplotypes and the most common haplotype was “263G” carried by 12 (4.1 %) individuals. The strikingly high variability generated by intense gene flow is mirrored in a high sequence diversity (0.9966?±?0.0010), and the probability of two random individuals showing identical mtDNA haplotypes were 0.0068. The analysis of haplogroup distribution revealed that 36.9 % (n?=?107) presented Amerindian haplogroups, 35.2 % (n?=?102) presented African haplogroups, 27.6 % (n?=?80) presented European haplogroups, and one (0.3 %) individual presented East Asian haplogroup, evidencing that the southeastern population is extremely heterogeneous and the coexistence of matrilineal lineages with three different phylogeographic origins. The genetic diversity found in the mtDNA control region in the southeastern Brazilian population reinforces the importance of increased national database in order to be important and informative in forensic cases. 相似文献

HVI and HVII mitochondrial DNA data in Apaches and Navajos 总被引:4,自引:4,他引:0

Most mtDNA studies on Native Americans have concentrated on hypervariable region I (HVI) sequence data. Mitochondrial DNA haplotype data from hypervariable regions I and II (HVI and HVII) have been compiled from Apaches (N=180) and Navajos (N=146). The inclusion of HVII data increases the amount of information that can be obtained from low diversity population groups. Less mtDNA variation was observed in the Apaches and Navajos than in major population groups. The majority of the mtDNA sequences were observed more than once; only 17.8% (32/180) of the Apache sequences and 25.8% of the Navajo sequences were observed once. Most of the haplotypes in Apaches and Navajos fall into the A and B haplogroups. Although a limited number of haplogroups were observed, both sample populations exhibit sufficient variation for forensic mtDNA typing. Genetic diversity was 0.930 in the Apache sample and 0.963 in the Navajo sample. The random match probability was 7.48% in the Apache sample and 4.40% in the Navajo sample. The average number of nucleotide differences between individuals in a database is 9.0 in the Navajo sample and 7.7 in the Apache sample. The data demonstrate that mtDNA sequencing can be informative in forensic cases where Native American population data are used. 相似文献

This study presents mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) data from 107 unrelated individuals from two of the major ethnic groups in Ecuador:
Amerindian Kichwas (n = 65) and Mestizos (n = 42). We characterized the diversity of the matrilineal lineages of these Ecuadorian groups by analyzing the entire mtDNA
control region. Different patterns of diversity were observed in the two groups as result of the unique historical and demographic
events which have occurred in each population. Higher genetic diversity values were obtained for the Mestizo group than for
the Amerindian group. Interestingly, only Native American lineages were detected in the two population samples, but with differences
in the haplogroup distribution: Kichwa (A, 49%; B, 3%; C, 8%; and D, 40%) and Mestizo (A, 33%; B, 33%; C, 10%; and D, 24%).
Analysis of the complete mtDNA control region proved to be useful to increase the discrimination power between individuals
who showed common haplotypes in HVSI and HVSII segments; and added valuable information to the phylogenetic interpretation
of mtDNA haplotypes. 相似文献

The sequences of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) control region were investigated in 101 unrelated individuals living in the northern region of Nile delta (Gharbia, N = 55 and Kafrelsheikh, N = 46). DNA was extracted from blood stained filter papers or buccal swabs. HV1, HV2 and HV3 were PCR amplified and sequenced; the resulted sequences were aligned and compared with revised Cambridge sequence (rCRS). The results revealed presence of total 93 different haplotypes, 86 of them are unique and 7 are shared haplotypes, the most common haplotype, was observed with a frequency, 2.97% of population sample. High mtDNA diversity was observed with genetic diversity and power of discrimination, 0.9982 and 0.9883, respectively. In this dataset the west Eurasian haplogroups predominated over the African haplogroups. The results would be useful for forensic examinations and human genetic studies. 相似文献

There is mounting evidence that genetic factors located in mitochondrial and nuclear genomes influence sport performance. Certain mitochondrial haplogroups and polymorphisms were associated with the status of elite athlete, especially in endurance performance. The aim of our study was to assess whether selected mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) and nuclear DNA variants are associated with elite athlete performance in a group of 395 elite Polish athletes (213 endurance athletes and 182 power athletes) and 413 sedentary controls. Our major finding was that the mtDNA haplogroup H and HV cluster influence endurance performance at the Olympic/World Class level of performance (P = 0.018 and P = 0.0185, respectively). We showed that two polymorphisms located in the mtDNA control region were associated with achieving the elite performance level either in the total athlete's group as compared with controls (m.16362C, 3.8% vs 9.2%, respectively, P = 0.0025, odds ratio = 0.39, 95% confidence interval: 0.21–0.72), or in the endurance athletes as compared with controls (m.16080G, 2.35% vs 0%, respectively, P = 0.004). Our results indicate that mtDNA variability affects the endurance capacity rather than the power one. We also propose that mtDNA haplogroups and subhaplogroups, as well as individual mtDNA polymorphisms favoring endurance performance, could be population‐specific, reflecting complex cross‐talk between nuclear and mitochondrial genomes. 相似文献
