pubmed:abstractText |
The assignment of paternity when the alleged father has died is now possible by use of a variety of allele-specific oligonucleotides after amplification of genomic DNA by the polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Issues relating to the inheritance of estates may be decided on fact rather than allegation. PCR-based genotyping of DQ alpha haplotypes from paraffin-embedded tissue of the deceased was used to prove non-paternity in the case reported here. Because the child was female, it was also possible to confirm the exclusion by using a second polymorphic site located in the factor VIII gene on the X chromosome.
