Results:

• mms6 was not amplified
• RFP was amplified
  • Expected size is ~800bp
  • Actual size is >1000bp
    • We believe that the suffix segment of the fusion primer annealed rather than the FP segment. This would cause the promoter (R0040) of J04450 to be amplified, adding ~200bp, giving a final size of >1000bp.
