The number one reason people use mtDNA HVR1/2 Sequence Analysis, is to
reconstruct family linked relationships, and prove or disprove genealogical
research (ie. family trees). This test is used to support or disprove a direct
female-to-female linkage between 2 male participants (male or female).
mtDNA sequencing provides researchers (i.e., forensic scientists, evolutionary
biologists, genealogists, and anthropologists) a useful tool for studying human
migration patterns, evolution, maternally linked relationships and
identification.
There are 2 regions of the mtDNA that are of particular interest to researchers
because of their variability among the different human populations. These
regions are most commonly referred to as HVR1 and HVR2.
To characterize the HVR1 and HVR2 mtDNA pattern, the DNA is sequenced. GeneTree
provides mtDNA sequence data and comparative analysis through examining these
regions, and reporting the differences as compared to a standard, the Cambridge
Reference Sequence.
GeneTree uses this service to facilitate in reconstructing family
maternal-linked relationships, but the data can also be used to research your
own mtDNA sequence. There are a number of publications that will assist you with
researching your mtDNA profile and how it relates to published mtDNA migration
patterns. Contact us if you are interested in receiving a list of publications
that will assist you with your research.
