چکیده انگلیسی
Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) variation is being reported relative to the corrected version of the first sequenced human mitochondrial genome. A review of the existing literature across disciplines that employ mtDNA demonstrates that insertions and deletions are not reported in a standardized way. This may lead to false exclusions of identical sequences, unidentified matches in missing persons mtDNA databases, biased mtDNA database frequency estimates and overestimation of the genetic evidence. Seven years ago we introduced alignment-free database search software (SAM) and implemented it into the mtDNA database EMPOP (https://empop.online) to produce reliable and conservative frequency estimates that are required in the forensic context. However, ambiguity remained in how laboratories have been reporting mitotypes, as often more than one single alignment of a given mtDNA sequence was feasible. In order to overcome this limitation we here describe a concept and provide software for producing stable, harmonized phylogenetic alignment of mtDNA sequences for database searches. The new software SAM 2 will be made available via EMPOP and provide the user with the already established conservative frequency estimates. In addition, SAM 2 offers the rCRS-coded haplotype of a given mtDNA sequence following the established and widely accepted phylogenetic alignment. This provides the user with feedback on how mitotypes are stored in EMPOP and how they should be reported in order to harmonize nomenclature. Finally, this approach does not only permit reliable mtDNA nomenclature in forensics but invites related disciplines to take advantage of a standardized way of reporting mtDNA variation, thus closing the ranks between different genetic fields and supporting dialogue and collaboration between mtDNA scholars from various disciplines.
