MPRIMER
:: DESCRIPTION
MPRIMER is a reliable, flexible and high-throughput multiplex PCR primer design software. It i) utilizes the famous Primer3 program to select candidate primers; ii) uses thermodynamics to measure the stability of misprimer and dimers; iii) implements k-mer index algorithm to fast check the specificity against large genome database; iv) designs a flexible plugin mechanism for easily extending the applications; v) has a self-learning system to redesign primers when primers are incompatible; vi) can auto-group the incompatible templates into different tubes; vii) is suitable for high-throughput primer design.
