A novel metric to improve mismatched primer selection and quantification accuracy in amplifying DNA repeats for quantitative polymerase chain reactions.
In quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) experiments, primers containing mismatches with respect to the template are widely used in measuring repetitive DNA elements. Primer-template mismatches may lead to underestimation of the input sample quantity due to inefficient annealing and amplific...
