Efficient F Labeling of Cysteine-Containing Peptides and Proteins Using Tetrazine–-Cyclooctene Ligation

18 F positron emission tomography (PET) has a number of attributes that make it clinically attractive, including nearly 100% positron efficiency, very high specific radioactivity, and a short half-life of ≈ 110 minutes. However, the short half-life of 18 F and the poor nucleophilicity of fluoride in...
