Calculating the percentage of non-AI cells and the locus copy-number of AI-cells from markers with allelic imbalance caused by copy-loss or copy-neutral events.

<p>Schematic view of the different use of both microsatellite alleles comparing observed vs. expected allele peak heights, concerning the calculation of the percentage of non-AI cells and the locus copy-number determination. Solid color peaks represent allele peak heights obtained from microsatellite electropherograms after a theoretical MMPA. Dashed color peaks indicate expected peak heights in the case 100% of the cells were non-AI. cl, copy-loss; cn, copy-neutral.
