random hexamers as primers for RT in RT-PCR

[Sean David Moore]

I don't think the molecules would "join up" as you suggest without help.  
Also your assumption about the distance is mostlt right.  You must also 
consider the length of the poly-A, and if it is present atall in some 
cases.  there could also be some sort of strong stop in the sequence 
before the target region, Random Hexies are a good way around most of 
that, but remember not to go cDNA cloning from the products.
