31 j5 parameters file The j5 parameters file is a CSV file that contains a list of all of the parameters that controls how j5 designs DNA assemblies. The order of parameter rows does not matter. If a given parameter row is missing from the parameters file, the default j5 parameter value is used. The first line in the file is a header line that does not contain parameter information, but rather just serves to name the columns below. Parameter Name column fields: entries must exactly match those shown in the example below. Value column fields: entries are (generally-speaking) user-specifiable.
