Ordered 2,5-bis(2-thienyl)pyrrole (SNS) zipper arrays are formed by hybridization of complementary DNA oligomers each containing covalently bound SNS monomers. Upon oxidation with HRP/H2O2, these SNS arrays are converted to oligomers having specific lengths and conformation. As a consequence of this reaction the two SNS-containing strands are permanently crosslinked.
