Description
This track shows the primers for the
ARTIC network SARS-CoV-2 sequencing protocol,
Version 4.1 (January 7, 2022), which restores the functionality of some primers against
the Omicron variant.
Display Conventions and Configuration
Genomic locations of primers are highlighted. A click on them shows the primer pool.
Methods
Artic Network primer sequences were downloaded from
Github (file
SARS-CoV-2.primer.bed) and converted to bigBed.
Data Access
The raw data can be explored interactively with the
REST API,
Table Browser, or combined with other datasets in the
Data Integrator tool.
For automated analysis, the genome annotation is stored in
a bigBed file that can be downloaded from
the download server.
Annotations can
be converted from binary to ASCII text by our command-line tool bigBedToBed.
Instructions for downloading this command can be found on our
utilities page.
The tool can also be used to obtain features within a given range without downloading the file,
for example:
