Hi Tar,

To answer your first question, yes, there is a way to make a batch DNA 
sequence query. The Table Browser is a useful tool for doing this. From 
main page, click on "Tables" on the top blue navigation bar. After 
selecting a clade, genome, and assembly of your choice, set the following:

group: Genes and Gene Prediction Tracks
track: choose a gene prediction track you would like to use (I'll use 
'UCSC Genes' for this example)
table: the default table will be the primary table for that track  
('knownGene' in this case)
region: click on 'define regions', then paste in or upload a file with 
your coordinates, click 'submit'
output format: sequence
output file: enter a file name to save your results to a file, or leave 
blank to display results in the browser

Click 'get output'. On the following page, select 'genomic' then click 
'get output'. Select any additional options, then click 'get sequence'. 
For more information on how to use the Table Browser, please refer to 
our help pages: http://genome.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/help/hgTablesHelp.html

For your second question, there is a utility for batch PCR queries 
located in the kent source tree. You can download in silico PCR (isPCR) 
and other utilities here: http://www.soe.ucsc.edu/~kent/exe/. If you run 
'isPCR' without any arguments, you will see the usage statement.

I hope this information is useful and answers your questions. Feel free 
to contact us again at [email protected] if you have any additional 
questions.
