A method of producing a polydeoxyribonucleotide molecule by reverse
transcriptase polymerase chain reaction wherein the
polydeoxyribonucleotide molecule has a length of greater than 5,000
base-pairs is disclosed. The method involves combining two reverse
transcriptases followed by two protocols of polymerase chain reaction.
This method enable the amplification of large DNAs, such as viruses, from
a sample while preserving genetic diversity of the large DNA.
