If you dont reverse the reverse primer, ironically, you would get right from the first cycle a 200 bp minus the primer length product, because the presence of doublestranded dna causes the. To fix this, you need one primer that binds to the target sequence, and one that binds to the reverse complement strand, which you have already generated. But if i put that into my pcr reaction, it will not do anything because dna binds to its complement strand, meaning that primer would only bind to 3 acg 5, or 5 gca 3.
