Hi,
there are some issues. Primer3 memorizes PRIMER* tag though a run, SEQUENCE* tags only for the current sequence, so they have to be provided each time. A single = forces a calculation, so the first is missing a sequence and it throws an error: PRIMER_ERROR=Need PRIMER_SEQUENCE_ID if PRIMER_FILE_FLAG is not 0
The second = forgot about the SEQUENCE_TARGET=200,300 so it is fine.
Here is a fix with some adaptions: fixed.txt
I hope that clears things up a bit.
Best,
Andreas
I am trying to design primers for a sequence that contains a target region in 200-700 bp position. Here shows a diagram:![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/43125963/128120466-5b750440-db4c-49ff-ab5b-5f90ee642d35.png)
I have tried to set _SEQUENCETARGET=200,300 or _SEQUENCE_EXCLUDEDREGION=200,300 expecting PCR amplicon covers the target region. But primer3 (v2.5.0) only return primer pairs that overlap the target region. How can I change the parameters?
Here are the parameters options: primer3_test.txt
The results show that primer3 failed to design primer pairs cover the target region: primer3_test.p3.txt
Any answers are appreciated.
