Journal ArticleDOI

Juliana R. Pimenta,Luciana W. Zuccherato,Adriana A. Debes,Luciana M. F. Maselli,R.P.S. Soares,Rodrigo S. Moura-Neto,Jorge Rocha,Sérgio Paulo Bydlowski,Sérgio D.J. Pena +8 more
TL;DR: The present investigation based on data from 12 commercially available forensic microsatellites corroborate and validate previous conclusions that in Brazil at the individual level there is significant dissociation of color and genomic ancestry.
Journal ArticleDOI
An element downstream of the cap site is required for transcription of the gene encoding mouse ribosomal protein L32.
TL;DR: Results indicate that the elements involved in transcriptional regulation of the rpL32 gene are distributed over a 200-base-pair region that spans the cap site, and some of these elements are apparently masked in the presence of simian virus 40 ori-region elements.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluation of mitogenome sequence concordance, heteroplasmy detection, and haplogrouping in a worldwide lineage study using the Precision ID mtDNA Whole Genome Panel

TL;DR: This study evaluated the performance of a commercially available multiplex-PCR-based assay, the Precision ID mtDNA Whole Genome Panel (Thermo Fisher Scientific), for the amplification and sequencing of the entire mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) from even degraded forensic specimens.
Journal ArticleDOI
Selection of highly informative SNP markers for population affiliation of major US populations
Xiangpei Zeng,Ranajit Chakraborty,Jonathan L. King,Bobby LaRue,Rodrigo S. Moura-Neto,Rodrigo S. Moura-Neto,Bruce Budowle,Bruce Budowle +7 more
TL;DR: The results showed that the FST panel performed slightly better for population resolution based on principal component analysis (PCA) clustering than did the δ panel and both performed better than the In panel, and indicated that individuals could be correctly assigned to the major population categories.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluation of the precision ID mtDNA whole genome panel on two massively parallel sequencing systems.
August E. Woerner,Angie Ambers,Frank R. Wendt,Jonathan L. King,Rodrigo S. Moura-Neto,Rosane Silva,Bruce Budowle +6 more
TL;DR: This study demonstrates that the Ion and MiSeq platforms provide consistent haplotype estimation of the whole mitochondrial genome, thus providing further support for the reliability and validity of the Precision ID mtDNA Whole Genome Panel.
