Polymorphism Description:  One of 13 CODIS Core STR markers. This tetranucleotide repeat polymorphism has a complex sequence structure composed of TCTA/TCTG repeats (Brinkmann et al. 1996, Moller et al. 1994 and Urquhart et al. 1994).

The common sequence motif is (TCTA)n(TCTG)n(TCTA)3TA(TCTA)3TCA(TCTA)2TCCA TA(TCTA)n (Sacchetti L, et al 1999).

The nomenclature used for allele designation is after Moller et al (1994).
