Description

This track shows the primers for the NEB VarSkip v1 and v2 sequencing primers.

Display Conventions and Configuration

Genomic locations of primers are highlighted. For primer tracks, the "full" visibility mode is often more suitable than the "pack" or "squish" display modes.

Methods

Primer sequences were downloaded from the NEB GitHub repository and converted to bigBed.

Data Access

The raw data can be explored interactively with the Table Browser or combined with other datasets in the Data Integrator tool. For automated analysis, the genome annotation is stored in a bigBed file that can be downloaded from the download server.

Annotations can be converted from binary to ASCII text by our command-line tool bigBedToBed. Instructions for downloading this command can be found on our utilities page. The tool can also be used to obtain features within a given range without downloading the file, for example:
