NetPrimer is a gratis web-based tool used for analysing primers used in PCR to amplify a DNA sequence. [2] The software predicts the melting temperature of the primers using the nearest neighbor thermodynamic algorithm. The accurate prediction of the melting temperature (Tm) is one of the most important factors that governs the success of a PCR ...
OLIGO Primer Analysis Software is a software for DNA primer design. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] The first paper describing this software was published in 1989. [ 3 ] The program is a real time PCR primer and probe search and analysis tool.
The last 10-12 bases at the 3' end of a primer are sensitive to initiation of polymerase extension and general primer stability on the template binding site. The effect of a single mismatch at these last 10 bases at the 3' end of the primer depends on its position and local structure, reducing the primer binding, selectivity, and PCR efficiency.
TE buffer is also known as T 10 E 1 buffer, which can be read as "T ten E one buffer". To make a 100 ml solution of T 10 E 1 buffer, 1 ml of 1 M Tris base (pH 10–11) and 0.2 ml EDTA (0.5 M) are mixed and made up with double distilled water up to 100ml.
Primer Premier is a bioinformatics software used for various PCR applications. It supports the design of degenerate primers for amplifying a related set of nucleotide sequences for the detection of common traits amongst organisms, as well as to determine heredity. [1] The software also designs tagged and nested primers for multiplex PCR ...
Polymerase cycling assembly (or PCA, also known as Assembly PCR) is a method for the assembly of large DNA oligonucleotides from shorter fragments. The process uses the same technology as PCR, but takes advantage of DNA hybridization and annealing as well as DNA polymerase to amplify a complete sequence of DNA in a precise order based on the single stranded oligonucleotides used in the process.
The first alkaline lysis was performed by Birnom and Doly in 1979. [1] Since then, slight modifications have been made to the procedure to get to today's most widely used approach. The steps of alkaline lysis can be summarized as the formation of a pellet, resuspension of the pellet in solution, cell lysis, neutralization, and centrifugation.
Saturation mutagenesis is commonly achieved by site-directed mutagenesis PCR with a randomised codon in the primers (e.g. SeSaM) [2] or by artificial gene synthesis, with a mixture of synthesis nucleotides used at the codons to be randomised. [3] Different degenerate codons can be used to encode sets of amino acids. [1]
