I am grateful to J. Perrault (p.c.) for pointing out to me why my RT-PCR did not work when I
followed the more-standard advice to heat-denature my RNA template. I turns out it is just not necessary,
and I have amplified several cDNA targets up to 12 kb by skipping that step (Barnes & Ivanova,
unpublished).
