PerlPrimer -- cross-platform, graphical primer design for standard, bisulphite and real-time PCR

What you can do:
Design various PCR primers on PC, Mac or Linux based system.
Highlights:
  • PerlPrimer is a cross-platform graphical user interface application for the design of primers for standard, bisulphite and real-time PCR, and sequencing.
  • It aims to automate and simplify the process of primer design.
  • PerlPrimer's current features include the following:
  • Calculation of possible primer-dimers
  • Retrieval of genomic or cDNA sequences from Ensembl (including both sequences automatically for QPCR)
  • Ability to BLAST search primers using the NCBI server or a local server
  • Results can be saved or optionally exported in a tab-delimited format that is compatible with most spreadsheet applications.
  • ORF and CpG island detection algorithms
  • Ability to add cloning sequences to primers, automatically adjusted to be in-frame
  • QPCR primer design without manual intron-exon boundary entry
