STRBase

STRBase is a scientific database that contains information about Short Tandem Repeats (STRs)—specific regions in human DNA where short sequences of DNA are repeated. These regions are unique to individuals, making STRs useful for forensic identification, paternity testing, and genetic research. STRBase provides data on the locations, patterns, and variations of these repeats across different populations and individuals. This resource helps scientists and forensic experts compare DNA samples accurately and understand genetic differences among people. Essentially, it’s a digital library that supports DNA analysis and identification efforts worldwide.
