An STR multiplex system is used to quickly identify specific short tandem repeat s. STR Polymorphism biology polymorphism s are genetic marker s that may be used to identify a DNA sequence . The FBI uses 13 specific STR loci in their database. These may be used in many areas of genetics in addition to their legal uses. One can think of a STR Multiplex System as collection of certain specific STRs which are positionally conserved on a target genome. Hence these can be used as markers. A number of different STRs along with their loci in a particular genome can be used for genotyping . As for example the STR Multiplex System AmpFlSTR Profiler Plus contain these STRs D3S1358, VWA, FGA, Amelogenin, D8S1179, D21S11, D18S51, D5S818, D13S317, D7S820, and they can be used as markers for human genome is used for human identification purpose.

Most MMP s are secreted as inactive proproteins which are activated when cleaved by extracellular proteinases. The protein encoded by this gene degrades amelogenin , the major protein component of dental enamel matrix, and so the protein is thought to play a role in tooth enamel formation. A mutation in this gene, which alters the normal splice pattern and results in premature termination of the encoded protein, has been associated with amelogenesis imperfecta .

Enamel is composed mostly of mineral, that is formed and regulated by the proteins in it. Amelogenesis imperfecta is due to the malfunction of the proteins in the enamel ameloblastin , enamelin , tuftelin and amelogenin . People afflicted with amelogenesis imperfecta have teeth with abnormal color yellow, brown or grey. The teeth have a higher risk for dental cavities and are hypersensitive to temperature changes. This disorder can afflict any number of teeth. Genetics Up to date, mutations in the AMELX , ENAM , MMP20 , and KLK 4 genes have been found to cause amelogenesis imperfecta non syndromic form . The AMELX, ENAM, KLK 4 and MMP20 genes provide instructions for making proteins that are essential for normal tooth development . These proteins are involved in the formation of enamel, which is a hard, calcium rich material that forms the protective outer layer of each tooth. Mutations in any of these genes alter the structure of these proteins or prevent the genes from making any protein at all. As a result, tooth enamel is abnormally thin or soft and may have a yellow or brown color. Teeth with defective enamel are weak and easily damaged. Researchers are looking for mutations in other genes that may also cause amelogenesis imperfecta. Types include class wikitable Type OMIM Gene Locus AI1B OMIM2 104500 ENAM 4 ... more details
