simulate pcr online with Winfy

We have hosted the application simulate pcr in order to run this application in our online workstations with Wine or directly.

Quick description about simulate pcr:

Assessing primer specificity and predicting both desired and off-target amplification products is an essential step for robust PCR assay design. This script predicts potential polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplicons in a large sequence database such as NCBI nt from either singleplex or a large multiplexed set of primers, allowing degenerate primer and probe bases, with target mismatch tolerance and amplicon length range to be set by the user. The PCR amplicon simulation code also annotates amplicons with gene information automatically downloaded from NCBI, and optionally it can predict whether there are also TaqMan/Luminex probe matches within predicted amplicons. It is an open source command line Perl script called simulate_PCR.pl that calls the BLAST (Altschul, et al., 1990) programs makeblastdb, blastn, and blastdbcmd, and the NCBI efetch utility (http: //www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/efetch.fcgi).
