Abstract

A series of peptides containing histidine residues were designed as potential hybridization rate enhancers within a polymeric matrix of DNA microarrays. The polymeric matrix modified with these peptides showed strong attraction to DNA molecules under conditions of induction. DNA probes on the peptide modified sites rapidly hybridized to their complementary targets with single base pair mismatch discrimination.
