On June 10th, 2022, 67-year-old truck driver Douglas Thomas was arrested for Herrera's murder. At long last DNA evidence had linked him to the 1993 murder. This connection was made after Thomas was linked by DNA to another case—Shenda Denise Hayes, who was murdered in 1992 at a Texas...

In east China's Zhejiang Province, all murder cases committed in 2017 were solved during the same year. Meanwhile, police solved 88 cold cases, around 70 percent of them using fingerprint, DNA, or facial recognition technology. Crime shows make the audience believe DNA samples can easily convict...
As the crystal protein structure of SLC4A11 is not yet solved, a homology-based modelling approach was executed for structural analysis. Using Modeller-10.1, a basic wild type (WT) three-dimensional homology model of the human SLC4A11 trans-membrane domain was created (Fig. 3). It was ...
On 01/31/1990, Unidentified Human Remains were found in Crane County. The remains were determined to be an unknown race, Female with and age range of 16-21 years old. DNA was obtained from the remains and entered into the DNA database but no matches have been made. A facial reconstructi...
databases, such as the CODIS (Combined DNA Index System), but the longer a case is cold, the less likely it will ever be solved. In order to break the logjam of cold cases many law enforcement agencies are releasing cold case information to searchable databases hoping that private ...
Whole genome sequencing was performed through the GE100KGP as described previously [76]. Briefly, TruSeq DNA PCR-Free Sample Preparation kit (Illumina Inc.) was used to extract genomic DNA. Whole genome sequencing (WGS) was done using high-throughput HiSeq X Ten platform (Illumina Inc.), yi...
On Oct. 5, Ohio State Highway Patrolannounced the DNA matchto the remains found along Interstate 75. The next day, Melvinville Police confirmed to theDetroit Free Pressthat a person of interest whose identity they did not disclose had been arrested in connection with the inves...
To quantify workload, we used the ratio between the number of variants interpreted and cases solved. This ratio effectively reflected the number of variants that have to be interpreted to reach diagnosis in one additional case. While the basic exome analysis had an average ratio of 239 variants...
Association studies using single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in these candidate regions are then used to identify particular genes. DNA pooling (Risch and Teng, 1998) provides the ability to test many SNPs with few genotypings and still have high statistical power. Psychiatric disorders likely ...
