A computer program for choosing optimal oligonudeotides for filter hybridization, sequencing and in vitro amplification of DNA

Abstract

A method is presented for choosing optimal oligodeoxyribonucleotides as probes for filter hybridization, primers for sequencing, or primers for DNA amplification. Three main factors that determine the quality of a probe are considered: stability of the duplex formed between the probe and target nucleic acid, specificity of the probe for the intended target sequence, and self-complementarity. DNA duplex stability calculations are based on the nearest-neighbor thermodynamic values determined by Breslauer et al. [Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. (1986), 83: 3746]. Temperatures of duplex dissociation predicted by the method described here were within 0.4 degrees C of the values obtained experimentally for ten oligonucleotides. Calculations for specificity of the probe and its self-complementarity are based on a simple dynamic algorithm.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
