Question

The answer is option A 

In the PCR amplification, two primers are used to flank the target region to amplification. The two primers are forward primer and reverse primer. The forward primer binds to the template DNA and the reverse primer binds to the complementary strand.

Step 2

In the above question, the two sequences of 21bp primers in the 5' to 3' Orientation that allows amplifying the given gene sequence are :

 

ATGTTTGTTTTTCTTGTTTTA  and 

GTCAAATTACATTACACATAA

 

CAN YOU FURTHER EXPLAIN WHY IT IS "GTCAAATTACATTACACATAA," I don't understand why it's called reverse primer? and where exactly it is binding to on the strand? (A picture would really help)

2) The partial coding sequence of the Spike protein for SARS- COV-2 is shown below: You are tasked with designing 2 primers to clone this gene
by PCR amplification. What are the sequences of the two 21bp primers in the 5' to 3' orientation that will allow you successfully amplify this
gene?
