Design a set of primers that ARE PRECISELY 24 NUCLEOTIDES EACH that would selectively amplify the gene that encodes the 119 amino acid protein.

Enter EITHER of the primers in the box below to check your answer.

(I encourage you to test both, to make sure you got both correctly.)

Make sure you enter them in the 5' to 3' direction, regardless of whether it's the forward or reverse primer. Do not include any additional characters. E.g. if your answer is 5'-AAAAAAAGGGG-3', then just enter AAAAAAAGGGG. (Is that the sound you're making from looking at this question?)
