Methods, compositions and articles of manufacture involving conformationally flexible conjugated polymers are provided. A structure is provided comprising the conformationally flexible conjugated polymer bound to or associated with at least one member of a binding pair comprising a sensor molecule and a target molecule or the complex they form. The conformationally flexible conjugated polymer comprises at least one angled linker having bonds to its two adjacent polymeric units which form an angle of less than about 155° with respect to one another. Methods of use of such structures and solutions comprising them are also provided. |
