Biological Tool Suite (BiTS) Online is a collection of tools that can be used in the biological sciences. The website is currently
in the early stages of development.
Tools
Recombination
allows in silico recombination prediction of BP and LR Gateway reactions based on currently available commercial systems.
Multisite recombination is currently unavailable.
Primer generator
generates primers for cloning CRISPR guide RNAs into pX series vectors using the BbsI site as published by the Zhang lab.
attB Primer generator
can be used to amplify a DNA sequenced flanked by required regions for Gateway cloning.
A PCR reaction with the given primers will yield a product with selected ends and is directly
useable for a recombination reaction such as a BP with pDONR221.
Centrifuge Calculator
allows for the selection of a centrifuge model, or manual input of centrifuge parameters.
Once a centrifuge is defined this tool can then be used to calculate required RPM based on G force (RCF),
G (RCF) based on RPM, as well as K factor.
Centrifuge Comparison
extends the centrifuge calculator, providing the same functionality but with the ability to
convert time on one centrifuge to time on a second centrifuge through use of K factors.
