Abstract
To study ester prodrug stability properties in living cells we have conjugated fluorogenic esters to the cell membrane permeable peptide Arg 9. The desired conjugates are prepared by coupling N-maleoyl amino acid esters of monoalkylated fluoresceins or fluorescein to TyrArg 9Cys. The photophysical properties of the monoalkylated fluorescein derivatives are described.
