Question
Which suspect is the perpetrator of this crime? Explain the results you see in the DNA gel.
Why each DNA sample generates two bands in the DNA gel? Explain.
Post your interpretation in the Discussion forum. To get full credit each of you has to post
an explanation in the forum, and everyone is encouraged to comment on each other
explanations or help each other interpreting the results. But each of you has to post their
own explanation, just comment on each other is not enough

Lab Procedure:
The forensic specialist sends you the DNA from the crime scene (CS), and DNA
from four different suspects (suspects A, B, C, D).
You perform a PCR with each DNA sample. Using primers specific to the DNA
sequences on either side of the STR, you amplify billions of copies of each of the
two original TH01 alleles in each DNA sample (CS, A, B, C, and D). Then you run an
agarose gel (DNA gel electrophoresis), which separates the DNA fragments by size.
You obtained the following results (picture of DNA gel):
CS A B
C D
Ladder
