Optical manipulation of the alpha subunits of heterotrimeric G proteins using photoswitchable dimerization systems

Alpha subunits of heterotrimeric G proteins (Gα) are involved in a variety of cellular functions. Here we report an optogenetic strategy to spatially and temporally manipulate Gα in living cells. More specifically, we applied the blue light-induced dimerization system, known as the Magnet system, an...
