Dynamic photoswitches in proteins that impart spatial and temporal control are important to manipulate and study biotic and abiotic processes. Nonetheless, approaches to install these switches into proteins site-specifically are limited. Herein we describe a novel site-specific method to generate photoremovable protein conjugates. Amine-containing chromophores (e.g., venerable o-nitrobenzyl and less-explored o-nitrophenylethyl groups) were incorporated via transamidation into a glutamine side chain of α-gliadin, LCMV, and TAT peptides, as well as β-casein and UmuD proteins by transglutaminase (TGase, EC 2.3.2.13). Subsequently, photolysis regenerated the native peptides and proteins. When this modification leads to the reduction or abolishment of certain activities, the process is referred to as caging, as in the case for E. coli polymerase manager protein UmuD. Importantly, this method is simple, robust, and easily adaptable, e.g., all components are commercially available.
