Forensic Context

A study in humans demonstrated that the miR-3171 was differentially expressed and shared across two pairs of monozygotic twins, indicating its potential role as a biomarker for distinguishing genetically identical individuals in forensic identification [Xiao et al. DOI:10.1016/j.fsigen.2019.05.003].
