A Photoswitchable HaloTag for Spatiotemporal Control of Fluorescence in Living Cells
Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.Photoswitchable fluorophores are critical for advanced bioimaging. Here, we develop a photoswitchable self‐labeling HaloTag that can reversibly modulate the emission of a bound fluorogenic dye via a light‐induced conformational change. In living cells, this tunable chemigenetic system enables precise spatiotemporal activation and control of emitter ...
