What is Understanding VNTRs in DNA Analysis about?

VNTRs are stretches of DNA that contain repeating sequences and tend to differ between individuals. The number of repeats of a sequence can be used to identify individuals because it varies between people. VNTRs have repeating sequences that are 10-100 base pairs long, which is longer than short tandem repeats (STRs) that are 2-9 base pairs. DNA profiling relies on analyzing the number of repeats in VNTR regions to identify individuals.
