DNA Polymorphisms
What types of DNA polymorphism exist?
RFLP: Restriction fragment-length
polymorphism
SNP: Single nucleotide polymorphism
VNTR: Variable number of tandem repeats
minisatellite
STR: Short tandem repeats
microsatellites
Although there are many variations in
methodology, the basic principal for detection
of DNA variability is differences in the size of
fragments
2
Restriction fragment-length
polymorphism (RFLP)
This was historically the first type of DNA polymorphism
used for genetic mapping
In this type of polymorphism, a change in sequence
causes a restriction endonuclease site to be formed
or to disappear (arises by point mutation)
In most cases, these are diallelic markers, and are
thus of limited utility for general mapping
RFLPs were detected historically after enzymatic
digestion by hybridization with a labelled probe
Currently: PCR, followed by enzymatic digestion and
gel electrophoresis

What is the relationship between
DNA polymorphisms and
genetic markers?
A genetic marker is any character which can be traced through
families
Thus, all germ-line polymorphic DNA markers are genetic markers,
but not all genetic markers are (as yet) DNA-based
DNA may also undergo somatic alteration, such that polymorphism
which occurs in somatic tissue may not always be inherited:
example--tumors
The great advantage of DNA polymorphisms is that they can be
scored easily and inexpensively with small amounts of human
material
18
What is the relationship
between variation in DNA and
variation in protein?
When the starting point is a protein mutation or polymorphism,
there is generally a 1:1 relationship with a DNA sequence change
Example: Hb A/S
However, if the starting point is a change in DNA sequence, there
is not necessarily any effect on protein sequence
The DNA sequence change may occur in an untranslated
region
Even in a translated region, the sequence change may produce
a synonomous codon
<10% of changes in protein sequence alter protein function

Keterbatasan Penggunaan RFLP DNA
Fingerprinting dalam Pola Penularan TB
Sebagian besar isolat MTB mengandung multiple copies
IS6110, tetapi ada beberapa isolat yang hanya memiliki
very few copies atau bahkan tidak ada
Suatu metode yg didasarkan pada PCR-spacer
oligonucleotide typing (spoligotyping) telah dikembangkan
untuk identifikasi cepat MTB dan sedang dievaluasi
kegunaan utk deferensiasi isolat dengan sedikit/ tidak ada
kopi IS6110
Genetic fingerprinting hanya dapat digunakan pada kasus
aktif TB, tetapi tdk dapat digunakan utk identifikasi orang
dengan latent infection (sekitar 90% dari populasi yg
terinfeksi), termasuk resiko tinggi terjadi reaktifasi dimasa

milk formula. J Clin Microbiol, 39, 293-7.
RAPD using enterobacterial repetitive intergenic consensus
motif primers
14 isolates from powdered milk were identical to isolates from 3/6
sick babies
RAPD is good for quick and dirty answers in an outbreak
investigation
32
Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA (RAPD)
Fingerprinting
In RAPD, arbitrary oligonucleotide primers are used in
PCR.
As a result, random banding patterns are produced.
These patterns (fingerprints) can be used as an easily
obtainable typing scheme.
It is used as a tool to differentiate between genospecies
and strains.
RAPD can also be used as a tool to study the change in
the genetic make up of bacteria existing at different
places and time.
33
RAPD fingerprints of a 1929 isolate (CH31) and some curent isolates
These pictures also show that the M16 primer produced better and clearer bands
than the other 2 commonly used primers.
Primer M16
Primers PB1 & L10 cannot differentiate between some of these reference
strains but primer M16 can differentiate between all.
36
RAPD fingerprints of 2 strains of the same serovar
Primer M16 was able to differentiate between 2 strains of the same serovars
of the serogroup.

Satellite DNA
A. Repetitive DNA
1. In two major classes:
a. Tandemly repetitive sequences of satellite DNA (about
10% of the genome).
b. Interspersed repetitive DNA makes up 520% of the
genome. They are scattered throughout the genome and
are further subdivided:
1) SINES (short interspersed elements) are sequences of
fewer than 500 bp.
2) LINES (long interspersed elements) are sequences of 500
bp or more.
2. Found near the centromere of chromosomes and also scattered
about the genome. Only found in eukaryotic organisms, without
a known biological function.
57
Satellite DNA Continued
3. Variable Number of Tandem Repeats (VNTRs).
a. Made of a short sequence, or motif, called a core
sequence, which is repeated many times in a row.
b. Inherited from the parents.
c. Core sequences range from two to six bp to over 300 bp
long.
d. The number of times the core sequence is repeated is
variable.
e. A VNTR refers to a single location with different alleles,
characterized by differences in the number of times the
core sequence is repeated.
f. Can have hypervariable loci where many different alleles
exist.
g. Jeffreys was able to use DNA probes for VNTRs by using
Southern blotting to yield a DNA fingerprint.
58
h. Can generate by restriction enzyme digestion or PCR.

Satellite DNA Continued
3. The number of alleles can also be very high, which means that
it is hypervariable.
4. Loci may number in the thousands, and the sequences are
used to detect length polymorphisms scattered throughout the
genome (called multilocus profiles).
D. Macrosatellites
1. Located near the centromeres and telomeres.
2. Megabases in length, and need a special type of
electrophoresis called pulsed-field gel electrophoresis.
3. Length makes them subject to breakage, so they are not used
in forensic analysis.
62
Population Genetics and Alleles
A. Because humans are diploid organisms, each individual
has two alleles per locus.
B. Individuals could be:
1. Homozygoustwo copies of the same overall length,
even though the DNA sequence may be different.
2. Heterozygoustwo copies of different overall length.
C. Many alleles exist in a population with the maximum
number of alleles being two times the number of people in
the population.
D. Some DNA regions can be hypervariable (usually used in
forensic analysis), while others are not as variable.
E. Allelic polymorphisms in a population are maintained by
genetic drift or natural selection.
63
Multilocus Minisatellite VNTR
A. Supported by genetic and population data, and the data provided by
the probes are reliable and are used in paternity and immigration
cases.
B. More difficult to interpret than single-locus patterns for several reasons:
1. The large number of bonds usually generated.
2. Incomplete cutting of the DNA.
3. DNA degradation.
4. Low DNA recovery.
5. Identification problems with mixed DNA samples from more than
one individual.
C. DNA fingerprinting has still been successful in forensic cases and
evaluating the genetic diversity of plants and animals.
D. Usually detected using Southern blot hybridization.

Single-Locus VNTR for STR
A. Generate only one DNA fragment (homozygous) or two fragments
(heterozygous).
B. If more than one location is used, the more informative the analysis.
C. Is technically less difficult because it eliminates the possibility of co-migration of
alleles, and it is less likely to produce artifacts.
D. The method of choice today is using PCR, by using at least four or five single-
locus primer sets in separate PCR reactions or in the same reaction (called
multiplexing).
E. Some potential problems with multiplexing that need to be overcome:
1. Primers from one locus can sometimes complex with those of other loci.
2. One locus may not amplify as well as another locus.
3. The optimization of PCR conditions can present a challengeannealing
temperature of primers and primer concentrations must be determined and
a uniform annealing temperature may be difficult to determine.
4. If the problems are not resolved, the absence of a specific STR allele may
not actually represent the individuals genotype. An alternative may be to
recover the DNA from one reaction, and use it in another reaction (called
sequential multiplex amplification).
