Abstract

Nucleic acid hybridization probes having a first conformation when not interacting with a target and a second conformation when interacting with a target, and having the ability to bring a label pair into touching contact in one conformation but not the other, are labeled with a non-FRET pair of chromophores and generate a fluorescent or absorbance signal. Kits may include such probes, and assays, including multiplex assays, may utilize such probes.
