The present invention relates to the field of ribonucleotide analysis. More specifically, the present invention provides compositions and methods for detection for nucleic acids using probe pair litigation. In particular embodiments, the compositions and methods of the present invention utilize a probe set comprising (1) a first multi-partite probe comprising a 5′ phosphorylated donor probe and a first bridge probe, wherein the 5′ phosphorylated donor probe specifically hybridizes to a target nucleic acid; and (ii) a second multi-partite probe comprising a 3′ acceptor probe and a second bridge probe, wherein the 3′ acceptor probe specifically hybridizes to the target nucleic acid adjacent to the 5′ donor probe and the second bridge probe is 5′ phosphorylated.

The present disclosure in some aspects relates to methods and compositions for accurately detecting and quantifying multiple analytes present in a biological sample. In some aspects, the methods and compositions provided herein address issues associated with the heterogeneity of analyte abundance (e.g., gene expression levels) and variations among reactions at different locations of a sample (e.g., amplification reaction starting earlier at one location than another location). In some aspects, a method disclosed herein provides a tighter distribution of signal spot size and intensity in a sample, as compared to methods that result in a wide and heterogeneous size and intensity distribution of signal spots.
