Template Builder

PrimeEditing

Prime Editing Template Generator (RTT/PBS)

Break down RTT and PBS logic with a purpose-built template builder.

Build RTT and PBS templates with stability guardrails and mismatch previews in Omnis Helix, the Genome IDE for prime editing design.

Tool definition

What the tool is

The Template Generator visualizes RTT and PBS segments, showing exactly where mismatches and edits sit relative to the nick.

Decision pressure

Why scientists care

RTT/PBS selection is often trial-and-error, leading to unstable priming or edits outside the window.

Genome IDE fit

How the Genome IDE helps

Interactive RTT/PBS sliders with guardrails for GC%, Tm, and length

Scoring model

How the algorithm works

Templates are scored on priming stability, mismatch placement, and proximity to the nick site.

Evaluation path

Try it in the Genome IDE

Load your desired edit, slide RTT/PBS lengths, and lock in the template with the highest stability badge.

Questions

FAQ

What RTT/PBS ranges do you support?

Common ranges (8–20 nt PBS, 10–40 nt RTT) are supported with custom overrides when needed.

Can I preview secondary structure?

We flag strong hairpins or homopolymers and suggest alternates before export.

Do you handle reverse complements?

Yes—templates are oriented automatically based on target strand and nick direction.
