Abstract

Arrays of polymeric targets stably associated with the surface of a rigid solid support are provided. In the subject arrays, the polymeric targets are arranged at least according to size. The polymeric targets of the subject arrays are generally biopolymeric compounds, e.g. nucleic acids and proteins, where ribonucleic acids and proteins are the preferred polymeric targets. The subject arrays find use in a variety of different applications, and are particularly suited for use in high through gene expression analysis applications.
