The order of the chemical bases is what provides the informational content of the DNA. Id. Everyone’s nuclear DNA can be considered unique, with the exception of identical twins. Id. 7 . In nuclear DNA, there are three billion base pairs of nucleotides, where in the smaller, circular mtDNA, there are only approximately sixteen and a half thousand nucleotide bases. 8 . The DNA is extracted, purified, amplified, and sequenced. 9 . The available database of mtDNA sequences, to which mtDNA profiles are compared to identify whether a particular profile commonly occurs within the population, is relatively small when compared to the database compiled for nuclear DNA profiles.
