Probe Database

"Probe Database, operated by the National Center for Biotechnology Information, is a public registry of nucleic acid reagents designed for use in biomedical research. Its latest data set involves the contribution by Applied Biosystems of more than 400,000 polymerase chain reaction primer-pair designs for about 16,000 human genes for the detection of DNA sequence variants related to disease. These resequencing primer sequences provide a rich data resource that can enable researchers to design better diagnostic tools and therapeutics for diseases. www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/genome/probe"
