Abstract
Methods are provided for the hybridization of a target polynucleotide with a conjugate. The conjugate comprises an oligonucleotide covalently bound to a linker that is covalently bound to an amino acid or a polyamide. The oligonucleotide portion of the conjugate comprises an anti-sense sequence which is complementary to and hybridizes with the target polynucleotide. The method is useful for detecting the presence of viral or bacterial target polynucleotides.
