Many optogenetic tools are driven by light-controlled protein–protein interactions (PPIs) that are repurposed from natural light-sensitive domains (LSDs). Applying light-controlled PPIs to new target proteins is challenging because it is difficult to predict which of the many available LSDs, if any, will yield robust light regulation. As a consequence, fusion protein libraries need to be prepared and tested, but methods and platforms to facilitate this process are currently not available. Here, we developed a genetic engineering strategy and vector library for the rapid generation of light-controlled PPIs. The strategy permits fusing a target protein to multiple LSDs efficiently and in two orientations. The public and expandable library contains 29 vectors with blue, green or red light-responsive LSDs, many of which have been previously applied ex vivo and in vivo. We demonstrate the versatility of the approach and the necessity for sampling LSDs by generating light-activated caspase-9 (casp9) enzymes. Collectively, this work provides a new resource for optical regulation of a broad range of target proteins in cell and developmental biology."}],"date_published":"2019-08-09T00:00:00Z","publication_status":"published","issue":"17","month":"08","article_processing_charge":"No","date_updated":"2023-08-28T09:39:22Z","type":"journal_article","day":"09","isi":1,"year":"2019","intvolume":"       431","volume":431,"language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"_id":"6564","article_type":"original","citation":{"ieee":"A.-M.
