What is a microsatellite?
Tandemly repeated DNA (may see in the
literature as STRs - Short tandem repeats)
Poly A/T most common
1-10 bp tandemly repeated = micro satellite
>10 = mini satellite
Types of microsats
7 repeats
8 repeats
the repeat region is variable between samples while the
flanking regions where PCR primers bind are constant
Homozygote

1800 recessive mutations discovered to morphogenesis of the
vertebrate embryo. The cloning of the mutant genes depends on a
dense genetic map.
