Hi all,

Although there are well enough online program for primer design, such as web tool from illumina and life.

To develop several specific primers, I want to know is there any source that I can get to confirm the function of primers, such as Complementarity, dimer,Stability...?

Have you tried the Primer3 program? BioPerl has a wrapper for it. I think BioPython also has one.

Thanks, Michael.

I used both of the modules for perl you provided before, however, even I looked into the pm files for details, they did not provide the function for the primer selection, such as Complementarity, dimer...

Thanks for your comment.

I can use the primer3 or other newest tools for primer design.

However, I want to know if there is any perl function or other languages to define the function for primer selection.

That's what I want.

Thanks
