How can I do that? I cannot do a single step as there is a too long primer ( with a long hanging tail) and I need to have a blunt end:(

Please any suggestions?

What is the size of your primer and what is the size of the DNA to be ampified?

The primer is about 70 nucleotides and the fragment that I want to amplify is 3000...

Hi,
Assume that 20 bases of the 70 is complementary to the template, you may use lower annealing temperature for the first 5 cycles to allow primer binding, and higher temperature for the rest of cycles.
