I don't think there is anything in GCG or in EGCG aside from prime.
We have primer3 and OSP installed, but they're not too popular
around here. You can goto:
http://www.ebi.ac.uk/biocat/Oligomer_design_and_synthesis.htm to
check out what is available there - a pretty long list. Most of the
programs seem to be designed to do PCR rather than hybridization.
We have a person here that uses a program called hybsimulator and
loves it. It's unfortunately $$. you can check it out at:
http://www.hybsimulator.com/
MacVector has a kinda neat feature that scans protein sequences for
Hyb probes, but does not tell you anything about secondary
structure or alternate binding sites.
Good Luck.
