NAME

Bio::Tools::Primer3Redux::PrimerPair

SYNOPSIS

  # get the primer pair from the Bio::Tools::Primer3Redux::Result
  my $pair = $result->next_primer_pair;

  # grab left/right primers
  my ($fp, $rp) = ($pair->forward_primer, $pair->reverse_primer);

DESCRIPTION

Bio::Tools::Primer3Redux::PrimerPair acts as a simple SeqFeature that bundles primer pair data together into one object. This object can be used to retrieve the amplicon sequence, the forward/reversion (left/right) primers, and any internal oligos. Furthermore, any primer information relative to the product is included as SeqFeature tags.

NAME

Bio::Tools::Primer3Redux::PrimerPair - Simple Decorator of a Bio::SeqFeature::Generic with convenience methods for retrieving left and right primers, internal oligos, and any amplicon-related information
