    Co-designs qPCR/RT-qPCR primers and hydrolysis (TaqMan) or molecular-beacon probes with primer3-py (PRIMER_PICK_INTERNAL_OLIGO, PRIMER_INTERNAL_* tags), for assays whose deliverable is a quantitative measurement device. Covers why amplification efficiency (90-110%, slope -3.6 to -3.1) and single-product specificity make the 2^-ddCq / Pfaffl math valid, why the short amplicon (70-150 bp), tight Tm, and zero-dimer requirement exist, the coupled probe rules (probe Tm 8-10 C above primers so it is bound when Taq's exonuclease cleaves it; no 5' G as it quenches the reporter; C-rich strand; primer3 has NO no-5'-G tag so enforce PRIMER_INTERNAL_MUST_MATCH_FIVE_PRIME=HNNNN), gDNA exclusion by exon-junction spanning AND why pseudogenes defeat it, SYBR melt-curve QC, and reference-gene validation (geNorm/NormFinder). Use when designing TaqMan/SYBR assays, exon-spanning primers, probes, or matched-efficiency multiplex panels. Genome specificity is primer-specificity; dimers primer-validation; standard PCR primer-basics.

Covers why a species tree is not a gene tree, why each locus has its own genealogy that disagrees by incomplete lineage sorting (ILS) even with zero error, why concatenation is statistically inconsistent and positively misleading in the anomaly zone where more loci converge on the wrong tree with full support, why gene-tree estimation error biases summary methods, that localPP is not bootstrap and ASTRAL branch lengths are coalescent units, and how minority-quartet symmetry separates ILS from introgression. Use when multi-locus discordance, rapid radiations, anomaly-zone risk, concordance-factor interpretation, or concatenation-vs-coalescent choice arise.

    Designs and ranks PCR primer pairs for a target template with primer3-py (design_primers), returning pairs with nearest-neighbor Tm, GC, product size, and complementarity scores. Covers why primer3 is a LOCAL weighted-penalty minimizer over the single template supplied (so PRIMER_PAIR_0 is the lowest-penalty pair under the given bounds, never a genome-specificity guarantee), why Tm is a salt/concentration-dependent SantaLucia prediction not a fixed property, why the two primers must be Tm-matched, the seq_args/global_args tag semantics (SEQUENCE_TARGET/INCLUDED/EXCLUDED/OVERLAP_JUNCTION/FORCE_*, 0-based [start,length]), 3'-end and GC-clamp mechanism, 5'-tail handling, masking SNPs under 3' ends, and diagnosing zero-pair runs. Use when designing standard PCR, cloning, genotyping, or sequencing primers, flanking a target, or screening pairs by Tm/size/GC.

  55. Bio Proteomics Protein Inference · pku-yuangroup bundle
    Groups proteins from peptide identifications and controls protein-level FDR, framing inference as a chosen explanation (parsimony or a probability model) of underdetermined peptide evidence rather than a measurement. Reports protein GROUPS (proteins indistinguishable by observed peptides) with a leading protein, not flat lists. Covers shared-vs-unique peptides, indistinguishable/subsumable proteins, parsimony vs probabilistic (ProteinProphet, EPIFANY) vs razor inference, picked-protein and picked-group FDR, and why the two-peptide rule is wrong. Use when resolving which proteins are present from a peptide list, building protein groups, or estimating protein-level FDR. PSM/peptide FDR and search engines are peptide-identification; razor-vs-unique quant consequences are quantification; isoform/proteoform resolution is top-down and out of scope.

    Tests a gene list (ORA, enrichWP) or a ranked gene vector (GSEA, gseWP) against the WikiPathways community-curated pathway collection with clusterProfiler and rWikiPathways. Covers why a WikiPathways result is a snapshot of a live, monthly-updated database (enrichWP/gseWP/gson_WP silently pull data.wikipathways.org/current/), why reproducibility requires pinning a dated GMT via downloadPathwayArchive(date=, format='gmt'), why the WP GMT is Entrez-keyed so symbols and Ensembl silently overlap nothing, why universe=NULL gives a biased all-WP-genes background, how to split the name%version%wpid%org term, and why WikiPathways (CC0, no peer review) complements KEGG/Reactome. Use when running open community-pathway enrichment, covering a non-model WP species, catching disease/drug pathways missing from KEGG/Reactome, or needing a reproducible dated analysis. The gene list comes from differential-expression/de-results; visualize with enrichment-visualization.

  94. Bio Crispr Screens In Vivo Screens · pku-yuangroup bundle
    Designs and analyzes in vivo CRISPR screens in animal tumor models, organoids, and immune-cell adoptive transfers. Covers bottleneck math (250x cells/sgRNA requires ~25M cells implanted; impossible for most syngeneic models, forcing focused libraries), focused library design (Manguso 2017 Nature 547:413 immune screen; Chen 2015 tumor screens), CRISPR-StAR intrinsic-control screening (Uijttewaal 2025 Nat Biotechnol 43:1848), clonal-dynamics-limited detection, tumor-explant DNA recovery, syngeneic vs xenograft vs PDX considerations, and the relationship to downstream MAGeCK / drugZ analysis. Use when designing in vivo CRISPR screens for tumor / immune / metastasis biology, choosing focused vs genome-wide for animal models, addressing bottleneck-induced clonal collapse, picking the syngeneic / xenograft / PDX model, integrating in vivo with in vitro results, or applying CRISPR-StAR for animal experiments.
