Grafting M13 bacteriophage into an array of poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) nanowires generated hybrids of conducting polymers and replicable genetic packages (rgps) such as viruses. The incorporation of rgps into the polymeric backbone of PEDOT occurs during electropolymerization via lithographically patterned nanowire electrodeposition (LPNE). The resultant arrays of rgps-PEDOT nanowires enable real-time, reagent-free electrochemical biosensing of analytes in physiologically relevant buffers.

PSMA ligands, compositions, and methods therefore are disclosed where the ligand is a peptide having the sequence XXCVEVXQNSCXXwhere X-Xare independently a natural or non-natural amino acid or a peptide having the sequence CALCEFLG [SEQ ID NO: 1]. Especially preferred aspects include diagnostic reagents for detection and/or quantification of PSMA in a sample, therapeutic reagents, and diagnostic imaging reagents.
