The present invention is directed to method of using a collection of monomers capable of forming multimers as a fluorescence reporter in different applications such as ligand detection/screening, disease diagnosis, drug discovery or screening, fluorescent labeling and imaging, or other fluorescent methodologies. Each monomer in the collection includes one or more ligand elements useful for binding to a target molecule with a dissociation constant of less than 300 μM and a linker element connected to the ligand elements directly or indirectly through a connector. Association of linker elements of different combinations of monomers, with their ligand elements bound to the target molecule to form a multimer, will generate a unique fluorescent signature different from that produced by those monomers either alone or in association with each other in the absence of the target molecule, when subjected to electromagnetic excitement.

Novel molecular matrices have been derived from coumarin-4-acetic acids and β-phenylethylamines using the Bischler–Napieralski protocol which has led to the synthesis of analogues of tetrahydropapaverine in which the dimethoxybenzene moiety has been replaced by substituted coumarins. One carbon homologation has led to cyclization at the C3 position of coumarin generating the protoberberine skeleton
EGF receptor-binding peptides could be found by a peptide screening method using fifteen fluorescent amino acids as fluorescent tags. Of 225 peptides, we found an 8-mer peptide containing a dipeptide unit, Y-F, which was the strongest binding peptide to the EGF receptor. (c) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Described herein are monomers capable of forming a biologically useful multimer when in contact with one, two, three or more other monomers in an aqueous media. In one aspect, such monomers may be capable of binding to another monomer in an aqueous media (e.g. in vivo) to form a multimer, (e.g. a dimer). Contemplated monomers may include a ligand moiety, a linker element, and a connector element that joins the ligand moiety and the linker element. In an aqueous media, such contemplated monomers may join together via each linker element and may thus be capable of modulating one or more biomolecules substantially simultaneously, e.g., modulate two or more binding domains on a protein or on different proteins.
