General Information
Grandparentage DNA Diagnostic Testing provides DNA analysis between grandparent and grandchild to establish paternal and/or maternal genetic lineage information. Grandparentage testing can be performed for alleged grandparents on the paternal or maternal side of an index grandchild.
Numerous methodologies are utilized in establishing genetic relationship data between grandparent and grandchild. Standard Microsattelite DNA profiling with statistical calculation analysis will elucidate a grandparentage analysis with complet accuracy. Microsatellite-DNA, also known as short tandem repeats (STRs) are DNA markers that provide genetic lineage information. STRs consist of a series of end-to-end repeats of 1-6 base pairs (the building blocks of DNA). Variants are transmitted from parents to offspring, and follow a simple codominant mode of inheritance. Each variant is detectable by testing procedures which provide accurate results concerning the relationship between a grandchild and alleged grandparent(s),
Other genetic methods may be employed including Y STR Chromosome analysis and mtDNA Mitochonrial DNA Analysis to establish definitive information defining a grandparent and grandchild genetic relationship.
