Primer design and other tools

Takara Bio provides easy-to-use tools to help you plan your cloning experiments:

  • Design primers for single- or multi-insert cloning or for your site-directed mutagenesis experiment (insertion, deletion, replacement) with our primer design tool
  • Calculate the optimal amounts of vector and insert for your cloning reaction with our molar ratio calculator
  • Simulate your In-Fusion Cloning construct with SnapGene software

 

Design your primers

NEW TOOL!

Our NEW In-Fusion Cloning Primer Design Tool allows for single- or multiple-insert cloning, accommodates vector linearization by inverse PCR or restriction digest, and enables site-directed mutagenesis. Simply input the DNA sequences of your vector and insert(s), along with your linearization method to generate primers for your next cloning experiment. Easily switch to the mutagenesis option to generate primers for all of your insertion, replacement, and deletion projects.
