DYS385	DYS385 is a multi-copy marker, and includes DYS385a and DYS385b. The order of DYS385a and DYS385b may be reversed, their sequence is referred to as the Kittler order.	GAAA	13-18	0.00226	NIST fact sheet

DYS388	ATT	17	0.00022

DYS389	DYS389 is a multi-copy marker, and includes DYS389i and DYS389ii. DYS389ii refers to the total length of DYS389.	(TCTG) (TCTA) (TCTG) (TCTA)	i:13 ii:30	0.00186, 0.00242	NIST fact sheet

DYS413	Found in the Palindromic region of the Y DNA	21-22

DYS425	DYS425, when it can be measured, is very stable. However it is actually one copy of a multiple part marker, DYF371 (below), and as such recLOH mutations can often make it unmeasurable when the other copies overwrite it.	TGT	12

DYS439	DYS439 is also known as Y-GATA-A4. DYS439 is associated with the defining SNP for haplogroup R1b1c9a, as the SNP can render a null value at this marker.	AGAT	12	0.00477	NIST fact sheet
