The allele frequency of D14S299 microsatellite locus was analyzed in 242 normal blood from Korean population. Using the polymerase chain reaction and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. we examined the allele and genotype frequency. The size of 0145299 PCR fragments ranged from 299 bp to 331 bp. The most frequent allele in the Korean subjects was allele 30 (44.9%) followed by allele 31 (25.4%), allele 32 (12.4%), and minor alleles (17.3%). The heterozygosity of D14S299 was 0.710. The polymorphism information content (PIC) and power of discrimination (POE) were 0.67 and 0.880, respectively in the present study. The genotype distribution and allele frequency of D14S299 microsatellite in the Korean subjects was similar to those of Japanese and Chinese populations including in the same Asian Population.
