DNA Fingerprinting
Why Use DNA Fingerprinting?
 DNA fingerprinting is a way of telling individuals
of the same species apart
 DNA sequences are variable and can therefore
be used as identifying characteristics.
 DNA fingerprinting has advantages over other
sources of evidence (fingerprints, blood type,
etc.):
– Highly accurate.
– Can be gathered from trace crime scene evidence.
How do you take a DNA fingerprint?
 One way: Restriction Fragment Length
Polymorphisms (huh?)  aka RFLP
 Restriction enzymes are molecules that
can cut DNA into pieces --> each enzyme
cuts at a very specific DNA sequence
 While all human beings share roughly the
same DNA sequence, there are in fact a
small number of differences  these
differences can be seen by restriction
enzymes

Summary
 Essentially, once the DNA has been cut by
the enzymes, we will have DNA fragments
of various sizes
 Each individual’s banding patterns should be
different because the restriction enzymes
will cut each person’s DNA at different
points
 Fragments of different sizes will travel
different distances along a gel when an
electric current is passed through it
Agarose Gel Electrophoresis
Different banding patterns from different individuals
