Biological processes, particularly gene function, are naturally regulated with high spatiotemporal resolution in single cells and multicellular organisms. The activity of genes, proteins, and other biological molecules is precisely controlled in timing and location. This is especially evident during the complex biological processes observed in the development of an organism. In order to understand and to study these processes and their misregulation in human disease, it is imperative to control them with the same level of spatiotemporal resolution found in nature. Here, light irradiation represents a unique tool, because it can be easily and precisely controlled in timing, location, and amplitude; thus, light enables the precise activation and deactivation of biological function.Rather than providing a comprehensive literature review, this article focuses on the basic concepts and requirements of controlling biological (especially cellular) function with light. Recent examples are used to illustrate these concepts. The interested reader can find additional excellent and comprehensive reviews regarding the photochemical regulation of biologically active molecules in the literature.[1]
