Interaction of Cucurbit[7]uril With Protease Substrates: Application to Nanosecond Time-Resolved Fluorescence Assays

We report the use of the macrocyclic host cucurbit[7]uril (CB7) as a supramolecular additive in nanosecond time-resolved fluorescence (Nano-TRF) assays for proteases to enhance the discrimination of substrates and products and, thereby, the sensitivity. A peptide substrate was labeled with 2,3-diaza...
