Hi,
In your opinion what's the best _commercial_ Macintosh program for
PCR/sequencing primer design.
The lab next to ours has a bit of money to spend (an increasingly rare
condition) and will let us use the program too :-). They are looking for
something comprehensive, but with an easy user interface. Right now they are
using a Mac IIsi and me to run freeware programs, but they want
bells-and-whistles.
Quote: "I want to enter a template sequence, show the acceptable region of
the template I want the primer(s) to bind, and let the program choose the best
primer or pair -- minimized secondary structure, minimized self-dimer,
minimized dimer with other amplimer, etc."
Any and all comments on your experiences are appreciated.
