You eventually want to identify this gene in mouse. How will you start? Using
_______________________as a PCR
template (2pts) ?
Design 5’ to 3’ oligos that will give you the best chance at identifying some of
this coding sequence in the mouse.
You are fearful of getting to much garbage from your amplification!
