Azobenzenederivatives can be used to reversibly photo-regulate conformation and activity when introduced as intramolecular bridges in peptides and proteins. Here we report the design, synthesis, and characterization of an azobenzenederivative that absorbs between 400-450 nm in aqueous solution to produce the cis isomer, and relaxes back to the trans isomer with a half-life of a few seconds at room
