About Primer Search
The web based primer search tool was developed to search primers that used in Dr. Mullins Lab. Basic search provides searching via primer sequence and name.
Advanced search provides searching via HXB2 location, primer usage, direction, viral type and/or subtype. The search result lists the matched primers
in primer database with associated information including primer name, sequence, HXB2_location, usage, direction, lab common, viral type, subtype,
scientist who provides the primer and notes.
- Primer sequence
-
Primer sequence to be searched in primer database. The result outputs the information of primers that contain the searched sequence pattern.
- Primer name
-
Primer name to be searched in primer database. The result outputs the information of primer that matches the searched name.
- Primer location in HXB2
-
The location relative to HXB2 that the searched primers contain.
- Range
-
The number of bp stands for the range that is beyond the HXB2 location field, which makes searching for primers within a range of HXB2 numbering location.
- Primer Usage
- The purpose that primer used for.
- Primer direction
- The direction of primer amplification.
- Viral type
- Virus type that the primer designed for.
- Viral subtype
- Virus subtype that the primer designed for.
- Lab common
- A flag that indicates the commonly used primer in Lab.
- Scientist
- Scientist who provids the primer.
