ABSTRACT:
Intracellular enzyme-activated fluorescent substrates that can be transported into a cell are provided. The membrane transportable fluorescent substrates are complexes (e.g., ionic complexes) formed between an enzyme activated fluorescent substrate and a carrier molecule. The fluorescent substrates can be used in an intracellular assay of enzyme activity and/or expression.
