Although G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) are the molecular target of almost half of today s pharmaceuticals, little is known about the molecular basis of the specific interaction with their ligands, owing to the difficulty of obtaining spectroscopic data for such highly flexible and complex systems integrated in the cell membrane. A powerful experimental approach to investigate ligand–receptor interactions in a native environment is the use of photoaffinity cross-linking, which usually involves photo-activatable crosslinkers installed into chemically achievable ligands to establish spatial constraints in the ligand–receptor complex.[1] However, only a few positions within the ligand can be modified with the photo-cross-linker without affecting binding or signaling behavior.[2] This limitation prevents comprehensive mapping of the ligand–receptor interaction and prevents comparison of ligands with different pharmacological properties.Noncanonical amino acids can be genetically incorporated into proteins in live cells through the expansion of the genetic code.[3] Briefly, an exogenous orthogonal tRNA/aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase (aaRS) pair is introduced into the host cell. The aaRS is engineered to charge a desired unnnatural amino acid (Uaa) onto its cognate tRNA, which incorporates the Uaa in response to a unique codon, usually the amber stop codon UAG. Using this approach, photoactivatable amino acids have been introduced into proteins in bacteria, yeast, and mammalian cells,[4] and a few crosslinking examples have been reported, which are mostly limited either to cytosolic proteins or to validate a known interaction.[5] Cross-linking with photoactivatable Uaas
