What you can do: Search for validated PCR primers for DNA methylation analysis.
Highlights:
  • methPrimerDB database provides a search portal for validated methylation assays.
  • Users can query the database using the official gene name, Entrez Gene or methPrimerDB identifier, or oligonucleotide sequence.
  • Different options make it possible to restrict a query to one organism (Human, Mouse, Rat) or method.
Keywords:
  • PCR primers
  • PCR-based methylation assay
  • gene methylation analysis
  • DNA methylation
  • Methylation-specific PCR
  • Bisulfite-PCR-SSCP
  • Methylation-sensitive single-nucleotide primer extension
  • Combined bisulfite restriction analysis
  • Bisulfite sequencing
  • CpG dinucleotides
  • CpG island
