Try "re-search for specific primers" feature on Primer-BLAST result page. When only non-specific primers are found, the result page offers the option to re-search for specific primers.

Primer-BLAST was developed at NCBI to help users make primers that are specific to intended PCR target.

Jul 21, 2025 · The Basic Local Alignment Search Tool (BLAST) finds regions of local similarity between sequences. The program compares nucleotide or protein sequences to sequence databases and …

To find primers for a group of related sequences, Primer-BLAST aligns the longest sequence to the rest to find common regions. It uses these to limit the locations of primers. The longest sequence is also …

Jun 28, 2017 · The good news is that an existing tool, Primer-BLAST, fills in nicely for the functions of both Forward and Reverse e-PCR, and has the additional benefit of de novo primer design.

Jan 6, 2025 · High-quality primer design is essential for the success of all polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based experiments. We previously developed a thermodynamics-based gene-specific …

Nov 24, 2024 · Neuropathic pain is used both as a mechanistic descriptor and a classification category of pain caused by a lesion or disease of the somatosensory nervous system and encompasses a …

Jun 18, 2012 · We describe a robust and fully implemented general purpose primer design tool that designs target-specific PCR primers. Primer-BLAST offers flexible options to adjust the specificity …

Primer design is a crucial initial step in any experiment utilizing PCR to target and amplify a known nucleotide sequence of interest. Properly designed primers will increase PCR amplification efficiency …
