Abstract:
PathoGene is a web-based resource that streamlines the process of predicting genes in microorganisms and designs polymerase chain reaction (PCR) primers for amplification to facilitate sequence analysis and experimentation. PathoGene currently supports primer design for every complete microbial, viral, and fungal genome as cataloged in GenBank by the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI, http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/). The resulting primers can then be subjected to a stand-alone BLAST system called PathoBLAST in which the predicted PCR product and/or primers can be compared against the genome of interest or a similar genome to find related genes or estimate primer quality.
