[Genome] Question about UCSC PCR output

[Shantel Weinsheimer]

Hi,

 

I have been using the UCSC In-Silico PCR application, and I have gotten a confusing result.......Can you please tell me what it means when the in-silico PCR results state:

 

"Chr22_random:13255+13348"   94 bp

 

The primers I entered also give the correct genomic region, which is a 94 bp segment on chromosome 11.  This is for the APOA1 gene.

 

I am just confused what this "chr22_random" means, and why the primer set would give the exact same pcr product (94 bp) for both regions.   Any additional information you can give would be greatly appreciated. J

 

Thanks,
