...Combined DNA Index System. A database containing the gene prints of 250,000 convicted felons--as well as 4,600 DNA samples left behind at the scene of unsolved crimes--the system acts as a sort of investigatory intranet through which law-enforcement officials can surf when trying to match a known criminal to a crime...
...streamline sampling, the system identifies subjects not by their entire genetic blueprint but by tiny stretches of DNA coding, known as short tandem repeats that are just two to seven base-pairs long. Though little more than genetic gibberish, STRs yield remarkably accurate results. If three of the ministrands match a suspect's, the likelihood is 2,000 to 1 that police have the right person. Nine matches boost the odds to 1 billion to 1. FBI sampling rules require no fewer than 13 matches. "Its success as a crime-fighting tool is incredible," says Christopher Asplen, director...
...extract the RNA and break it into pieces, tag each piece with a fluorescent chemical and pour the whole mess over the gene chip. The RNA tightly binds only to its exact DNA complement on the chip. The fluorescent tag tells you where on the chip you have a match. Then you look up the sequence of each matched spot on the chip and read out a precise catalog of which genes are being expressed. By comparing the results from several patients--some of whom are more successful at fighting the virus than others--you may be able to identify...
