  • Light-responsive fusion proteins for controlling binding to targets
    Patent number: 11746131
    Abstract: Provided herein is an isolated fusion protein comprising a light-responsive domain and a heterologous peptide component. Exposure of the fusion protein to light induces a conformational change in the fusion protein that alters an activity of the fusion protein and the activity is a binding activity selected from an in vitro binding activity, an in vivo extracellular binding activity and an in vivo intracellular binding activity. Also provided are methods of using and identifying the fusion proteins.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 1, 2020
    Date of Patent: September 5, 2023
    Assignee: The Trustees of Princeton University
    Inventors: Jared Toettcher, Jose Avalos, Maxwell Wilson, Alexander Goglia, Evan M. Zhao, Agnieszka Gil, Cesar Carrasco-Lopez
