Abstract
A solid phase comprising at least one pair of probes which are capable of sequentially hybridizing with a particular target nucleic acid sequence is provided. The probe pair(s) are immobilized on the solid phase through a linker portion wherein they occupy a restricted spatial arrangement such that they can be ligated by an enzyme when the they sequentially hybridize to a selected target sequence. In addition a method wherein the solid phase is utilized to detection a target nucleic acid is disclosed.
