To match DNA samples from a crime scene, forensic scientists analyze the number of repeats at 16 or
more STR loci. Today's technology can measure up to six loci at once. Row A from Handout 2-2 (below)
shows the variations at five STR loci for one person. The name of each STR locus is in the gray box.

The first STR locus (D3S1358) is on chromosome 3 where the sequences TCTG and TCTA are repeated
2 to 15 times. Scientists use polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to amplify the DNA that includes this
region. The PCR products are separated by size and charted on an electropherogram (or e-gram). The
peaks on the left are the smallest DNA fragments (those with fewer repeats). The peaks on the right
are the largest (with more repeats).

Nine common variations are found at D3S1358. The allelic ladder e-gram below is not from one
person, but shows all the possible variations at each of the five STR loci. Each variation is identified
with a number. The person above has variation 14 (shown as the first number in the box below the
graph) at the D3S1358 locus on one copy of chromosome 3 and variation 15 on the other.
