biology/pooler: Optimise DNA sequencing primer-set combinations
Optimise combinations of primers and minimise the formation of dimers in
multiplexed PCR.
Primer Pooler can:
- Check through each proposed pool for combinations that are likely to form dimers
- Automatically move prospective amplicons between proposed pools to reduce dimer formation
- Automatically search the genome sequence to find which amplicons overlap, and place their corresponding primers in separate pools
- Optionally keep pool sizes within a specified range
- Handle thousands of primers without being slow (useful for high-throughput sequencing applications)
- Do all of the above with degenerate primers too.
