DNA fragments Compares fragments to determine relatedness Paternity, Identity and Criminal cases DNA Fingerprinting
Step 1 – Extract DNA • Step 2 – Cut into fragments • Step 3 – Separate fragments • Step 4 – “Southern blot” • Step 5 – Link fragments to probes • Step 6 – Identify fragments with probes • Step 7 – Repeat with different probes • Step 8 – Compare patterns DNA Fingerprinting Steps
DNA is obtained from samples obtained from individuals, trace evidence • Blood • Semen • Hair follicle • Saliva • Tissue embedded in wounds, etc • Squames Step 1 – Extract DNA
Restriction Enzymes cut the DNA at specific places • e.g. HaeIIIcuts at GGCC occurs Step 2 – Cutting of the DNA
