http://wiki.solariseclipse.net/PrimerDesigner
THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on August 19,2025. Software program to aid in designing of primers and creation of primer sheets. The program allows users to select a background and enter mutaions. An initial primer is then suggested. User can manipulate the selected primer to add or remove nucleotides from either 5? or 3? ends. A set of parameters reflecting the goodness of the primer is updated on the fly, as the user makes changes. Once happy with the primer, the information is saved in a primer sheet, which can then be uploaded to the BGME lab primer database on the Wiki.

http://sourceforge.net/projects/salt1/
Software that can accurately and sensitivity classify short reads of next-generation sequencing (NGS) into protein domain families. It is based on profile HMM and a supervised graph contribution algorithm. Compared to existing tools, it has high sensitivity and specificity in classifying short reads into their native domain families.

https://rostlab.org/owiki/index.php/PredictNLS
Software automated tool for analysis and determination of Nuclear Localization Signals (NLS). Predicts that your protein is nuclear or finds out whether your potential NLS is found in our database. The program also compiles statistics on the number of nuclear/non-nuclear proteins in which your potential NLS is found. Finally, proteins with similar NLS motifs are reported, and the experimental paper describing the particular NLS are given.

http://sourceforge.net/projects/primerdesigner/
High throughput PCR primer design software. Target regions defined through a rich set of descriptors, such as Ensembl accessions and arbitrary genomic coordinates, may be specified. Primer pairs are then selected computationally to produce a minimal amplicon set capable of tiling across the specified target regions. As part of the tiling process, primer pairs are computationally screened to meet the criteria for success with one of two PCR amplification protocols.
