What is the SNP primer??
SNP Scoring > Frequently Asked QuestionsThe SNP primer is a synthetic oligonucleotide that is complementary to the sequence adjacent to the location of the target SNP, thus the next base (e.g., the dye-AcycloTerminator) added to the primer will be complementary to the base at the SNP location. During assay validation for a specific allele, we recommend designing both the forward and reverse SNP primers and using the one that performs better. Performance is affected by the sequence context around the allele. See similar questions…
