Abstract
Disclosed are dithio compounds that include a quenched fluorophore and a non-fluorophore peptide linked via a dithio bond to the fluorophore. The dithio compounds may be used in methods for detecting thiol-containing compounds or dithio-containing compounds. The dithio compounds also may be used as cellular probes where the peptide portion of the compounds targets the compounds to a specific cellular location.
