Abstract
The invention provides compositions comprising nucleic acid complexes for use in monitoring binding interactions and in measuring association and/or dissociation kinetics with or without force, detecting analytes, screening aptamers, and encoding/encrypting information. In some instances, the nucleic acid complexes are double-stranded nicked nucleic acids comprising a scaffold nucleic acid hybridized to one or more oligonucleotides. In some instances, a first and/or a second oligonucleotide are linked to moieties that are known to interact with each other or which are suspected of interacting with each other.
