new system for light-inducedproteindimerization in livingcells using a photocaged analogue of rapamycin together with an engineered rapamycin binding domain. Using focal adhesion kinase as a target, we demonstrated successful light-mediated regulation of protein interaction and localization in livingcells. Modification of this approach enabled light-triggered activation of a protein kinase and initiation
