Abstract
Compositions and methods are provided that reduce the time required for detection of botulinum neurotoxins in cell-based assays. In one aspect an isoquinolynyl compound can be used for this purpose. In such cell-based assays the cell can include an enzyme that facilitates degradation of the reporter significantly faster after the cleavage than before the cleavage, and presence of the Botulinum toxin correlates with reduction of the signal from a baseline signal. The cell can advantageously express both the construct that includes the reporter, and an enzyme that facilitates the degradation.
