Editor: Extensive Primer Design Support
Primer Premier is a comprehensive primer design tool for PCR, hybridization, cross species, sequencing and allele specific polymerase Chain Reaction.
Integrated Alignment
Primer Premier fully integrates multiple sequence alignment for consensus or species specific PCR primer design using the well proven, widely used ClustalW Algorithm.
Degenerate and Multiplex Primer Design
With Primer Premier you can start with an amino Acid sequence, reverse translate and design primers in regions of low degeneracy automatically. Primer Premier designs highly specific primers for multiplex experiments and analyzes them for homologies.
Sequence Analysis
Along with PCR primer design, use Primer Premier to analyze your templates using an extensive built-in database of common Enzymes and motifs. You can even add, delete or edit enzyme and motif information to customize the program for your experiments.
Comprehensive Reports
View and print comprehensive reports on hairpin, dimer, false priming, optical activity and internal stability of your designed primers.
Versatile Primer Analysis
Primer Premier lets you analyze pre-designed and published primers. You can also design primers for site directed mutagenesis.
Features
New in Primer Premier
Cross species primers: Designs primers for amplifying sequences from multiple species.
(For Real Time qPCR cross species primers, try AlleleID)
