Microarray synthesis through multiple-use PCR primer design
A substantial percentage of the expense in constructing full-genome spotted microarrays comes from the cost of synthesizing the PCR primers to amplify the desired DNA. We propose a computationally-based method to substantially reduce this cost. Historically, PCR primers are designed so that each primer occurs uniquely in the genome. This condition is unnecessarily strong for selective amplifica...
متن کاملPCR Primer Design
To make PCR a specific, efficient and cost effective tool for researchers and clinicians the most important aspect is oligonucleotide primer design. This review discusses various aspects of primer design. Advice is provided for optimal design and the role of bioinformatic tools is highlighted. The authors discuss theoretical considerations and compare computational and experimental studies.
متن کاملPrimer1: Primer Design Web Service for Tetra-Primer ARMS-PCR
Tetra-primer ARMS-PCR is used extensively as a low cost, single PCR assay requiring no post-PCR manipulation. The design of successful primers depends on a number of variables such as melting temperatures, GC content, complementarity and selection of mismatch bases. The optimal selection of primers can be achieved in an automated way using a program which evaluates candidate primers for a given...
متن کاملPrimer Set Selection in Multiple PCR Experiments
The selection of a suitable set of primers is crucial to the multiple PCR (polymerase chain reaction) experiment, which is one of the most important techniques in molecular biology. The minimum primer set (MPS) problem is to minimize the number of primers required to amplify a set of DNA sequences, so that the experimental costs and time will be reduced. However, the MPS problem has been proved...
متن کاملSimplified primer design for PCR-based gene targeting and microarray primer database: two web tools for fission yeast
PCR-based gene targeting is a popular method for manipulating yeast genes in their normal chromosomal locations. The manual design of primers, however, can be cumbersome and error-prone. We have developed a straightforward web-based tool that applies user-specified inputs to automate and simplify the task of primer selection for deletion, tagging and/or regulated expression of genes in Schizosa...
