This statement is False. If there are two or fewer alleles at each locus on an electropherogram, that means the profile may have a single DNA contributor.
What are Alleles?
- An allele is one of two or more variations of the DNA sequence (a single base or a segment of bases) at a certain genomic site.
- For each chromosomal region where such variation exists, an individual inherits two alleles, one from each parent.
- The person is homozygous for that allele if the two alleles are identical. The person is heterozygous if the alleles are different.
- When electrophoresis is employed as an analytical procedure, primarily in the domains of molecular biology or biochemistry, an electropherogram, also known as an electropherogram, is a record or chart created.
- An electropherogram is a visualization of DNA fragment sizes used in genetics, typically for genotyping processes like DNA sequencing.
Therefore, when there are more than two alleles at each locus as observed on an electropherogram, that means the profile has a mixture of DNA samples or multiple DNA contributors.
