<div>You can enter a target template sequence (or a set of very similar template sequences using the "Primers for a group of sequences tab.") A single template sequence can be in any format accepted by BLAST (FASTA etc.) or you can simply use an NCBI accession number.

<div>You can also use a combination of a template and one or two primers to design the other primer or to get binding sites and product sizes.<br /><br /></div>

||
<h3><strong>Primer parameters</strong></h3>
|
||
<p>This is where you enter individual forward and/or reverse primer(s), can set the PCR product size, and adjust the Tm parameters if desired.</p>
|
||
<h2><a id="Exon"></a>Exon / Intron Selection</h2>
|
||
<p>This is where you can set parameters to generate primers specific for mRNA (cDNA) vs. genomic DNA. These settings require an NCBI Reference Sequence transcript (NM_, XM_ accession).<br /><br /><img src="/ncbi/workshops/2022-10_Primer-BLAST/Images/Slide17_Primer-BLAST_form_exon_intron.JPG" alt="Image of the Primer-BLAST form exon/intron selection" width="900" /><br /><br />The screen shots below show why requiring that the primers bind to different exons would amplify from the transcript rather than from genomic DNA. Primers binding to exons 7 and 9 of the human myeloperoxidase mRNA (<a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/nuccore/NM_000250.2/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">NM_000250</a>) would produce a 750 bp product. The expected product from the genomic region would be over 5 kbp and wouldn't produce any appreciable product under normal PCR conditions.<br /><br /><img src="/ncbi/workshops/2022-10_Primer-BLAST/Images/Slide18_exon_intron_MPO_mrna.JPG" alt="Sequence viewer images showing MPO transcript and genomic sequences" width="900" /><br /><br /></p>

<h2><a id="Specificity"></a>Specificity Checking Parameters</h2>
|
||
<p>This section is where you select the BLAST database to check for unintended target matches. You should pick the database that best represent the background population of DNA molecules in the sample you'll be using in the PCR experiment, examples: human genomic DNA, human mRNA.</p>
|
||
<p><img src="/ncbi/workshops/2022-10_Primer-BLAST/Images/Slide20_Specificity_check.JPG" alt="Image of Primer-BLAST database selection" width="900" /><br /><br />Here are some examples of possible molecular samples and the appropriate database choices. You will nearly always need to specify an organism in addition to a database.<br /><br /></p>
|
||
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><u><strong>Human cDNA sample<br /></strong></u><u>Database:</u> RefSeq mRNA<br /><u>Organism: </u>Homo sapiens<br /><br /></p>
|
||
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><u><strong>Human Genomic Sample<br /></strong></u><u>Database:</u> RefSeq Representative Genomes<br /><u>Organism:</u> Homo sapiens<br /><br /><u><strong>Bacterial Genomic Sample<br /></strong></u><u>Database:</u> Representative genomes, nr, custom<br /><u>Organism:</u> bacterial species or specific strain</p>
|
||
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><u><strong>Sample from an Organism not in </strong></u><u><strong>RefSeq<br /></strong></u><u>Database:</u> nr<br /><u>Organism:</u> species or taxonomic group<br /><strong>Note:</strong> Use Entrez query to specify genomic or mRNA<br />biomol_genomic[PROP], biomol_mrna[PROP]<br /><br /><u><strong>Other Eukaryotic Genomic Sample<br /></strong></u><u>Database:</u> Custom, specify the genome assembly accession (e.g., <a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/datasets/genome/GCA_028021215.1/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">GCA_028021215.1</a>)<br /><u>Organism:</u> None<br /><strong>Note:</strong> Search <a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/datasets/genome/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Genome</a> to find the accession.</p>
|
||
<h2><a id="Advanced"></a>Advanced Parameters</h2>
|
||
<p>Most people rarely adjust the parameters in the Advanced Parmeters. However, if you are using a probe-based quantitative PCR or Real Time PCR, you would request an internal hybridization oligo in this section. You can also request that your primer binding site not contain a known SNP. This only works for human Reference Sequences.<br /><br /><img src="/ncbi/workshops/2022-10_Primer-BLAST/Images/Slide22_Advanced_parameters.JPG" alt="Image of Primer-BLAST advanced parameters section" width="900" /><br /><br />This section also contains the BLAST parameters for the BLAST primer specificity search. The default settings are those for a low stringency BLAST search so that all possible matches are considered. These are similar to the settings triggered when you use a short sequence in a BLAST search. Many people still use BLAST itself as a way to check primer binding targets. In fact, we designed Primer-BLAST in part because we saw that a large number of BLAST searches use short sequences that are likely PCR primers.</p>
