Input Sequence(s) and related data for batch processing:

Upload sequence file with FASTA format:
OR paste source sequence(s) below (5'->3', string of ACGTNacgtn -- other letters treated as N -- numbers and blanks ignored).
FASTA format ok. Please N-out undesirable sequence (vector, ALUs, LINEs, etc.) or use a
Mispriming Library (repeat library):
Upload file with sequence ID and target positions:
Pick left primer or use left primer in the right field.
Pick hybridization probe (internal oligo) or use oligo in the right field.
Pick right primer or use right primer in the right field (5'->3' on opposite strand).


Sequence Id: A string to identify your output.
Targets: E.g. 50,2 requires primers to surround the 2 bases at positions 50 and 51. Or mark the source sequence with [ and ]: e.g. ...ATCT[CCCC]TCAT.. means that primers must flank the central CCCC.
Excluded Regions: E.g. 401,7 68,3 forbids selection of primers in the 7 bases starting at 401 and the 3 bases at 68. Or mark the source sequence with < and >: e.g. ...ATCT<CCCC>TCAT.. forbids primers in the central CCCC.

Other Per-Sequence Inputs

Included Region: E.g. 20,400: only pick primers in the 400 base region starting at position 20. Or use { and } in the source sequence to mark the beginning and end of the included region: e.g. in ATC{TTC...TCT}AT the included region is TTC...TCT.

This batch primer design web site was developed by Frank You based on the Primer3 and its web software. The original Primer3 web software is provided by Steve Rozen steve@genome.wi.mit.edu and Whitehead Institute/MIT Center for Genome Research. The development of Primer3 and the original Primer3 web site was funded by Howard Hughes Medical Institute and by the National Institutes of Health, National Human Genome Research Institute. under grants R01-HG00257 (to David C. Page) and P50-HG00098 (to Eric S. Lander).

The original design of this primer-picking web site by Richard Resnick Primer3's design is heavily based on earlier implementations of similar programs: Primer 0.5 (Steve Lincoln, Mark Daly, and Eric S. Lander) and Primer v2 (Richard Resnick). Lincoln Stein championed the use of the Boulder-IO format and the idea of making the Primer3 engine a software component.
