| Comment | used to annotate the site on a given sequence to which a primer molecule binds - not intended to represent the sequence of the primer molecule itself; PCR components and reaction times may be stored under the PCR_conditions qualifier; since PCR reactions most often involve pairs of primers, a single primer_bind key may use the order(location,location) operator with two locations, or a pair of primer_bind keys may be used. |
