Multiplex Tiling PCR Panel Design

Design overlapping primer panels for NGS amplicon sequencing.

Design tiling PCR primers for complete coverage of target sequences. Mark target regions with [ and ] brackets.

Use /.../ to exclude specific regions from primer design.

  • Target marking: [target region] for single or multiple targets
  • Exclude regions: /excluded/ to skip specific areas
  • IUB/IUPAC codes: B=CGT, D=AGT, K=GT, M=AC, N=ACGT, R=AG, S=GC, W=AT, Y=CT
