CODEHOP (COnsensus-DEgenerate Hybrid Oligonucleotide Primer) PCR primer design
We have developed a new primer design strategy for PCR amplification of distantly related gene sequences based on consensus-degenerate hybrid oligonucleotide primers (CODEHOPs). An interactive program has been written to design CODEHOP PCR primers from conserved blocks of amino acids within multiply-aligned protein sequences. Each CODEHOP consists of a pool of related primers containing all pos...
متن کاملDPPrimer – A Degenerate PCR Primer Design Tool
UNLABELLED Designed degenerate primers unlike conventional primers are superior in matching and amplification of large number of genes, from related gene families. DPPrimer tool was designed to predict primers for PCR amplification of homologous gene from related or diverse plant species. The key features of this tool include platform independence and user friendliness in primer design. Embedde...
متن کاملThe degenerate primer design problem
A PCR primer sequence is called degenerate if some of its positions have several possible bases. The degeneracy of the primer is the number of unique sequence combinations it contains. We study the problem of designing a pair of primers with prescribed degeneracy that match a maximum number of given input sequences. Such problems occur when studying a family of genes that is known only in part,...
متن کاملDegenerate Primer Design via Clustering
This paper describes a new strategy for designing degenerate primers for a given multiple alignment of amino acid sequences. Degenerate primers are useful for amplifying homologous genes. However, when a large collection of sequences is considered, no consensus region may exist in the multiple alignment, making it impossible to design a single pair of primers for the collection. In such cases, ...
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.
