Reengineering receptors to react to light instead of their cognate ligands allows for generating defined signaling inputs with high spatial and temporal precision and facilitates the dissection of complex signaling networks. Here, we describe fundamental considerations in the design of light-regulated receptor tyrosine kinases (Opto-RTKs) and appropriate control experiments. We also introduce methods for transient receptor expression in HEK293 cells, quantitative assessment of signaling activity in reporter gene assays, semiquantitative assessment of (in)activation time courses through Western blot (WB) analysis, and easy to implement light stimulation hardware.","lang":"eng"}],"year":"2020","_id":"8173","status":"public","publication":"Photoswitching Proteins","type":"book_chapter","department":[{"_id":"CaGu"}],"oa_version":"None","author":[{"id":"32CFBA64-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","first_name":"Stephanie","full_name":"Kainrath, Stephanie","last_name":"Kainrath"},{"id":"33BA6C30-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","first_name":"Harald L","full_name":"Janovjak, Harald L","orcid":"0000-0002-8023-9315","last_name":"Janovjak"}],"date_created":"2020-07-26T22:01:03Z","date_updated":"2021-01-12T08:17:17Z","doi":"10.1007/978-1-0716-0755-8_16","publication_identifier":{"eisbn":["9781071607558"],"eissn":["19406029"]},"language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"day":"11","user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","page":"233-246","publisher":"Springer Nature","publication_status":"published","citation":{"chicago":"Kainrath, Stephanie, and Harald L Janovjak. “Design and Application of Light-Regulated Receptor Tyrosine Kinases.” In Photoswitching Proteins, edited by Dominik Niopek, 2173:233–46.
