["DIROM"--an interactive system for planning experiments on directed mutagenesis and design of artificial genes]. / "DIROM"--interaktivnaia sistema dlia planirovaniia éksperimentov po napravlennomu mutagenezu i konstruirovaniiu iskusstvennykh genov.

We present a computer system "DIROM" for oligonucleotide-directed mutagenesis and artificial gene design experiments planning and support. "DIROM" allows to search for optimal oligonucleotides according to such parameters as sufficient energy of oligonucleotide-target hybridization, secondary structure of oligonucleotide and target DNA, presence of alternative attachment sites in target DNA, terminal G/C pairs presence. Both single-stranded and double-stranded vector mutagenesis methods are implemented. It can be also used for optimal primer selection for polymerase chain reaction, sequencing etc. "DIROM" can search for both existent and potential carry out vector+target sequence construction. Both amino acid and nucleotide sequences can be operated.
