Abstract

The invention relates to a method for amplification of a target RNA sequence, wherein the first primer comprises a hybridizing sequence of 7 to 14 nucleotides, which is capable of binding to a first segment of the target RNA sequence, a transcription enhancing sequence, and an anchor which is capable of binding to a second segment of the target RNA sequence, and/or wherein the second primer comprises a hybridizing sequence of 7 to 14 nucleotides, an amplification enhancing sequence and an anchor which is capable of binding to a second segment of the first single stranded cDNA. The invention further relates to primers for the amplification of target RNA sequences and to a kit comprising one or more of the primers.
