SYNOPSIS
e-PCR [-hV] [posix-options] stsfile [fasta ...] [compat-options]
DESCRIPTION
The program substitutes blast in the location of pairs primers on the genome that may yield a PCR product.
OPTIONS
posix-options are:
- -m=##
- Margin (default 50)
- -w=##
- Wordsize (default 7)
- -n=##
- Max mismatches allowed (default 0)
- -g=##
- Max indels allowed (default 0)
- -f=##
- Use ## disontiguous words, slow if ##>1
- -o=##
- Set output file
- -t=##
- Set output format:
- 1 - classic, range (pos1..pos2)
- 2 - classic, midpoint
- 3 - tabular
- 4 - tabular with alignment in comments (slow)
- -d=##-##
- Set default size range (default 100-350)
- -p=+-
- Turn hits postprocess on/off
- -v=##
- Verbosity flags
- -a=a|f
- Use presize alignments (only if gaps>0), slow
- a - Always or f - as Fallback
- -x=+-
- Use 5'-end lowercase masking of primers (default -)
- -u=+-
-
Uppercase all primers (default -)
