Abstract

msatcommander is a platform-independent program designed to search for microsatellite arrays, design primers, and tag primers using an automated routine. msatcommander accepts as input DNA sequence data in single-sequence or concatenated, fasta-formatted files. Search data and locus-specific primers are written to comma-separated value files for subsequent use in spreadsheet or database programs. Binary versions of the graphical interface for msatcommander are available for Apple OS X and Windows XP. Users of other operating systems may run the graphical interface version using the available source code, provided their environment supports at least Python 2.4, Biopython 1.43, and wxPython 2.8. msatcommander is available from http://code.google.com/p/msatcommander/.

摘要

msatcommander 是一个独立于平台的程序，旨在通过自动化程序搜索微卫星阵列、设计引物和标签引物。msatcommander 接受单序列或串联的 FASTA 格式文件中的 DNA 序列数据作为输入。搜索数据和基因座特异性引物被写入逗号分隔值文件，以便随后在电子表格或数据库程序中使用。适用于 Apple OS X 和 Windows XP 的 msatcommander 图形界面的二进制版本可用。其他操作系统的用户可以使用提供的源代码运行图形界面版本，前提是他们的环境至少支持 Python 2.4、Biopython 1.43 和 wxPython 2.8。msatcommander 可从 http://code.google.com/p/msatcommander/ 获取。
