Gemi
DESCRIPTION
Gemi, an automated, fast, and easy-to-use bioinformatics tool with a user-friendly interface to design primers and probes for polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Gemi accepts multiple aligned and long DNA and RNA sequences with degenerate nucleotide (non-A/C/G/T bases). Gemi can be used for quantitative, real-time and conventional PCR (qPCR, rt-PCR, etc.), and Sanger sequencing. Gemi can parse large dataset of sequences efficiently.
Python source code is available upon request.
Milestone: The tool reached about 3000 downloads sine 2012.
