Forensic Context

A study in humans demonstrated that the mir-4734 is differentially expressed in blood samples from monozygotic twins, where it was identified as a microRNA shared across three pairs of twins using microarray analysis and validated by qRT-PCR, indicating its potential role in distinguishing genetically identical individuals for forensic identification [Xiao et al. DOI:10.1016/j.fsigen.2019.05.003].
