Primer3 is a widely used program for designing PCR primers (PCR =
|
|
"Polymerase Chain Reaction"). PCR is an essential and ubiquitous tool
|
|
in genetics and molecular biology. Primer3 can design hybridization
|
|
probes and sequencing primers.
|
|
|
|
PCR is used for many different goals. Consequently, primer3 has many
|
|
different input parameters that you control and that tell primer3
|
|
exactly what characteristics make good primers for your goals.
