However, the low quantity or quality of the evidence collected from a crime scene prevents further identification analysis in many cases. In the current study, we reported a case of identifying touch DNA extraction from the shed skin cells from the deployed airbag of a motor vehicle. We managed to collect DNA evidence from the shed skin cells in an airbag using a proper approach of collection and extraction. The 5.87 ng of extracted DNA was sufficient for genotyping and forensic identification, which helped to identify the driver of the car in collision with a pier in the street. In DUI cases and other traffic accidents, therefore, the amount of touch DNA extracted from the deployed airbag can be sufficient for DNA marker genotyping and further analysis.展开更多
目的:探索高GC含量DNA的PCR扩增条件,为扩增达托霉素生物合成基因簇及拼接奠定基础。方法:在PCR扩增体系中,使用高保真的聚合酶及添加不同浓度的DMSO、7-deaza-dGTP等增强剂,并选择合适的PCR循环程序,优化富含GC的DNA的PCR扩增条...目的:探索高GC含量DNA的PCR扩增条件,为扩增达托霉素生物合成基因簇及拼接奠定基础。方法:在PCR扩增体系中,使用高保真的聚合酶及添加不同浓度的DMSO、7-deaza-dGTP等增强剂,并选择合适的PCR循环程序,优化富含GC的DNA的PCR扩增条件。结果:向反应体系中额外添加1%~4%的DMSO可以显著提高富含GC的DNA的PCR扩增产物量,但会降低其特异性;7-deaza-dGTP可以提高扩增产物的特异性及保真度,但产量会有所下降。应用touch down PCR并在体系中添加7-deaza-dGTP能够提高扩增产物的特异性和产率,增加扩增的保真度。结论:应用优化的PCR扩增条件将所有达托霉素生物合成基因簇分段扩增出来,并可扩增出长达6 kb的片段,且序列完全正确,可以进行后续拼接。展开更多
