About Soaplab
Soaplab services are command line applications, wrapped as SOAP services, and served from a Soaplab server. All Soaplab services have the same generic set of SOAP operations (depending on the Soaplab version) as they all share a standardised interface.
Certain tools, like the Taverna workflow workbench, provide automatic support for the Soaplab way of executing these services. In some cases you will need to use the Soaplab Server Base URL rather than the WSDL location in these tools.
More information on Soaplab clients is available here.
Further documentation on Soaplab services is available:

- help : The maximum allowable 3′-anchored global alignment score when testing a single primer for self-complementarity, and the maximum allowable 3′-anchored global alignment score when testing for complementarity between forward and reverse primers. The 3′-anchored global alignment score is taken to predict the likelihood of PCR-priming primer-dimers, for example 5′ ATGCCCTAGCTTCCGGATG 3′ ………….||| ||||| ……….3′ AAGTCCTACATTTAGCCTAGT 5′ or 5′ AGGCTATGGGCCTCGCGA 3′ ……………|||||| …………3′ AGCGCTCCGGGTATCGGA 5′ The scoring system is as for the Maximum Complementarity argument. In the examples above the scores are 7.00 and 6.00 respectively. Scores are non-negative, and a score of 0.00 indicates that there is no reasonable 3′-anchored global alignment between two oligos. In order to estimate 3′-anchored global alignments for candidate primers and primer pairs, Primer assumes that the sequence from which to choose primers is presented 5′ to 3′. It is nonsensical to provide a larger value for this parameter than for the Maximum (local) Complementarity parameter because the score of a local alignment will always be at least as great as the score of a global alignment.

- help : The nanomolar concentration of annealing oligos in the PCR. EPrimer3 uses this argument to calculate oligo melting temperatures. The default (50nM) works well with the standard protocol used at the Whitehead/MIT Center for Genome Research–0.5 microliters of 20 micromolar concentration for each primer oligo in a 20 microliter reaction with 10 nanograms template, 0.025 units/microliter Taq polymerase in 0.1 mM each dNTP, 1.5mM MgCl2, 50mM KCl, 10mM Tris-HCL (pH 9.3) using 35 cycles with an annealing temperature of 56 degrees Celsius. This parameter corresponds to ‘c’ in Rychlik, Spencer and Rhoads’ equation (ii) (Nucleic Acids Research, vol 18, num 21) where a suitable value (for a lower initial concentration of template) is ’empirically determined’. The value of this parameter is less than the actual concentration of oligos in the reaction because it is the concentration of annealing oligos, which in turn depends on the amount of template (including PCR product) in a given cycle. This concentration increases a great deal during a PCR; fortunately PCR seems quite robust for a variety of oligo melting temperatures. See ADVICE FOR PICKING PRIMERS.

Product Tm is calculated using the formula from Bolton and McCarthy, PNAS 84:1390 (1962) as presented in Sambrook, Fritsch and Maniatis, Molecular Cloning, p 11.46 (1989, CSHL Press). Tm = 81.5 + 16.6(log10([Na+])) + .41*(%GC) – 600/length Where [Na+} is the molar sodium concentration, (%GC) is the percent of Gs and Cs in the sequence, and length is the length of the sequence. A similar formula is used by the prime primer selection program in GCG, which instead uses 675.0/length in the last term (after F. Baldino, Jr, M.-F. Chesselet, and M.E. Lewis, Methods in Enzymology 168:766 (1989) eqn (1) on page 766 without the mismatch and formamide terms). The formulas here and in Baldino et al. assume Na+ rather than K+. According to J.G. Wetmur, Critical Reviews in BioChem. and Mol. Bio. 26:227 (1991) 50 mM K+ should be equivalent in these formulae to .2 M Na+. EPrimer3 uses the same salt concentration value for calculating both the primer melting temperature and the oligo melting temperature. If you are planning to use the PCR product for hybridization later this behavior will not give you the Tm under hybridization conditions.

- help : The maximum allowable 3′-anchored global alignment score when testing a single oligo for self-complementarity. The scoring system is as for the Maximum Complementarity argument. In the examples above the scores are 7.00 and 6.00 respectively. Scores are non-negative, and a score of 0.00 indicates that there is no reasonable 3′-anchored global alignment between two oligos. In order to estimate 3′-anchored global alignments for candidate oligos, Primer assumes that the sequence from which to choose oligos is presented 5′ to 3′. INTERNAL-OLIGO-SELF-END is meaningless when applied to internal oligos used for hybridization-based detection, since primer-dimer will not occur. We recommend that INTERNAL-OLIGO-SELF-END be set at least as high as INTERNAL-OLIGO-SELF-ANY.

In addition, if the input tag TASK is 1 or 4, EPrimer3 produces a file (sequence-id).int, which lists all acceptable internal oligos.

- help : The maximum allowable local alignment score when testing a single primer for (local) self-complementarity and the maximum allowable local alignment score when testing for complementarity between forward and reverse primers. Local self-complementarity is taken to predict the tendency of primers to anneal to each other without necessarily causing self-priming in the PCR. The scoring system gives 1.00 for complementary bases, -0.25 for a match of any base (or N) with an N, -1.00 for a mismatch, and -2.00 for a gap. Only single-base-pair gaps are allowed. For example, the alignment 5′ ATCGNA 3′ …|| | | 3′ TA-CGT 5′ is allowed (and yields a score of 1.75), but the alignment 5′ ATCCGNA 3′ …|| | | 3′ TA–CGT 5′ is not considered. Scores are non-negative, and a score of 0.00 indicates that there is no reasonable local alignment between two oligos.

- help : The maximum stability for the five 3′ bases of a forward or reverse primer. Bigger numbers mean more stable 3′ ends. The value is the maximum delta G for duplex disruption for the five 3′ bases as calculated using the nearest neighbor parameters published in Breslauer, Frank, Bloecker and Marky, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, vol 83, pp 3746-3750. EPrimer3 uses a completely permissive default value for backward compatibility (which we may change in the next release). Rychlik recommends a maximum value of 9 (Wojciech Rychlik, ‘Selection of Primers for Polymerase Chain Reaction’ in BA White, Ed., ‘Methods in Molecular Biology, Vol. 15: PCR Protocols: Current Methods and Applications’, 1993, pp 31-40, Humana Press, Totowa NJ).
