Abstract
The invention provides conductive polymers comprising metal-containing nucleic acid duplexes electrically coupled to an electron source. Methods for making conductive metal-containing nucleic acid duplexes are provided, comprising subjecting a nucleic acid duplex to basic conditions in the presence of a divalent metal cation. Methods of using conductive metal-containing nucleic acid duplexes are provided, including methods of genomic analysis, methods of molecular screening and immunological methods that produce antibodies to such molecules.
