17. We note that the slope in the nonequilibrium regime of Fig. is somewhat smaller than that of Figs. This is probably due to the protocol followed: at time t=0 both the solution containing the target molecules and the array are at room temperature. They are then placed into an oven for the duration of the experiment at a temperature T=65°C. Short time behavior could then be influenced by the initial room-temperature hybridization.

21. We estimated Δ GPM (L=30) =-14.5 kcal/mol from the fits of Fig., using extensivity we expect Δ GPM (L=25) 0.83Δ GPM (L=30) =-12 kcal/mol.
