Characterization of the 172 SNPs Included in the ForenSeq™ DNA Signature Prep Kit in a Population from Northeast Italy.

ABSTRACT: In this study, 172 Single-Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) (94 identity-informative SNPs, 56 ancestry-informative SNPs, and 22 phenotypic-informative SNPs) included in the ForenSeq™ DNA Signature Prep kit/DNA Primer Mix B (Verogen) were used for genotyping DNA samples from a population of twenty-one unrelated subjects, native to Northeast Italy. SNP sequencing was performed with the MiSeq FGx™ Forensic Genomics System (Illumina-Verogen), and data were analyzed using the Universal Analysis Software (UAS) v1.2. Raw data underwent further examination with STRait Razor v3 (SRv3) to compare the target SNPs' genotype calls made with UAS and to identify the presence of microhaplotypes (MHs) due to SNPs associated with the same target SNP's amplicon. The allele (haplotype) frequencies, Hardy-Weinbe
