Abstract
The locus DXS 10011 is a polymorphic system with a tetranucleotide repeat s equence located on the human X chromosome. The distribution of allele frequ encies was examined in 334 Japanese and 171 German individuals and a total of 36 alleles was detected in the two population groups. This STR polymorph ism will be a useful marker for linkage analysis.
